: No noticeable mileage difference

Between all city driving, and running interstate at 80 plus with the cruise set for 700 miles. Still got about 18.5 at that setting, running about 2500 rpm. Noticed 75 makes it drone, 80 is pretty quiet *shrugs* Truck ran nice on the intersatte though. It was weird to use cruise for so long, my pedals felt unusually stiff for a few miles I guess since legs were semi asleep..lol

Hey Wickedsprint


I found almost the same thing on my 800 mile round trip to So Cal and back. 18.3 MPG. 75 MPH most of the way or a 2 hour nightmare 0-5 MPH stop and go from Burbank to Downey. Still got about 18.


I see some people getting better, but 18 aint bad.
