I got the truck fueled and cleaned today from my Morro Bay trip, and to my suprise, I re-checked on paper and calculator my mpg, and I came back with the same figure, I couldn't believe it, 15. 8 mpg, towing the car all the way to Morro Bay and back, total weight of truck, trailer, and car 13,080 lbs going 65 mph. Smarty was on level 1. This thing continues to amaze me. Seems like the more I work it, the more it loves it. My buddy came in from Texas, and was commenting about his '05 Duramax, how mine is quieter, and mine gets much more mpg than he does, he gets 13 mpg around town, according to him, and how his next truck might end up being a Cummins powered Dodge. Here's a pic of the truck and car, 1965 Olds Cutlass with a 425 Olds big block.
