On a trip to Alaska from Maryland and return we averaged 11.5 mpg for the entire trip. the rig was weighed when loaded setting off at a little under 14,000 lbs. See our signature below.
Since them we have been practicing some methods to increase our mileage. If we keep our RPM's at or below 2000 RPM we have been able to increase to 14.5 mpg on a cosistant basis, we slow as we climb, let the speed build going down hill, and take off slowly. We have discovered alot of other diesel powered vehicles doing the same.
