Hello and Good Luck
my 2 cents
first diesel truck 99 Dodge CTD 4X4 3.53 rear end i think, now has 130K miles been driven from Prudhoe bay to Key west and all points in between. This Truck is used for towing my 30 ft Toyhauler and hosting my many campers that I have had on it, as well as a daily driver. Love the truck and I use now it as my adventure truck with my Truck camper. AVG mpg just truck 15 Mpg in the city and 20 MPG on the highway 14mpg on the hwy with a truck camper and small trailer and 11 MPG towing the toyhauler at 18500 Gross the only down fall it is very noisy. I would get in it today and drive cross country in a min. still love the truck
second diesel truck is a 2007 Chevy Duramax Allison 4X4 crew cab Long bed WT trim 3.72 rearend i think the truck is used as my work truck/ back up trailer/camper truck. I am learning to like this truck very much 17 MPG in the city driving and very very quiet compared to the Dodge. Avg with the camper and a small canper and trailer or boat 14 to 15 mpg at 65 mph.
AND NO LIES ALL HAND CALCULATED I have all the reciepts for fuel if any one wants to challenge my calculations.
Have a great day
Chris
