Turn the ignition off...... press and hold the odometer reset button for at
least 4 seconds and the hours will be displayed

It will be interesting to see what everyone reports for their
average speed over the use of their trucks http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Geek.gif Edited by: 56Nomad

Don't know how that happened. I guess working out of your truck will do that?

I have 79,389 mile with 2231.5 hours ...comes to 35.57mph average. My summer time average goes way down due to the dog that I leave in the truck with it idling during lunch and other occasions.

12020 miles and 325 hours... That is not bad I guess. I really don't think it matters how many hours are on it when you get ready to get rid of it. So I guess we shall see when that time comes..

865 hours, 36500 miles, for an average of 42.2 mph.


I am on the interstates a lot, and don't believe in long idle periods.


I think hours along with mileage does count on resale, as it gives the buyer some idea of how the truck was used.

Ok I'll bite, what does the overall mph mean...in terms of being good or bad? Is 25 mph bad for our truck, while 45 mph is good for our truck?

I think what it means is that there is a correlation between the overall mph and the type of service the truck has seen. Low mph correlates to more idling, stop or go type driving, with more shifting, braking, etc. whereas higher mph means more hiway miles in the overall mix, with less shifting, braking, etc., Also, low mph may mean more short trips, commuting miles, etc. with the truck running at less than optimal operating temperature.


This is not entirely foolproof, however. There are other factors. Forty mph pulling a big heavy load is not the same as an empty truck averaging 40 mph pulling no load.


So one can read into it what one wants.

I let it idle more than I should, but here in South Texas if you cut it off for 5 minutes it takes 10 to cool it back off!

2254 HRS, 74600 MILES on the OD. so 33.1 mph. but running 315 for the last 20,000.


edit. the low average has a lot to do with the hunting season around here. 5 weeks at 10mph or less to and from the deer stands etc.Edited by: Gray Gmax
