MPG guesses?
Juat bought another truck and curious what MPG you all think it will get. It has not yet been over the road with me yet. I have heard everything. It is a 1998 Volvo with 3.70 gear with 18 speed with 500 hp n14 cummins. Please give some educated guestimates for me. Thank you!

You're pulling skateboards aren't you? If so, and it gets less than 6mpg, maybe an overhead would be in order. Just a thought.

I have a friend who had a 98 Volvo that sounds almost identical to yours. I believe that he got around 7 mpg. It really got my goat because at the time I could only get 5 mpg with my Peterbilt and a Detroit 435 hp. Not only that but he could walk away and leave me in heavy head winds. I don't recall what he had for a gear ratio. He really loved that truck, but it was heavy.
