Hey Mike, great thread, really enjoyed reading everything. How much fuel (gal) have you used since the first of the year?

Looking forward to more posts. BOL!

I don't know the exact figure,but I get 6mpg so at 66,000+ miles I would guess around 11,000gals.

Kinda depressing to think about actually

Hey Mike, what kind of front & rear ends do you ( or rather, your truck ) have ? Also, what about the transmission & engine ? Do you, by any chance use a 13 or 18 speed ? Do you find your truck adequately spec'ed out for the work ? What, according to you would be an ideal spec for this kind of work ?

I have a Cat C15 rated at 550hp with 3.36's rears with a 13 speed,I feel this is a good set up for me,some I have talked to would rather have 3.70's but I like my set up. I cruise 65mph @ 1350rpm and get 6mpg with this set up.
