right now i’ve only been driving it a day but the avg. mileage is showing 14.9 on the overhead trip computer. I’m assuming thats mostly city though… but I doubt its going to make much of a difference since 70mph is pretty much topped out with the gearing. At 65 this morning, I was around 2500rpm (redlines at 3500ish) And the gearing is perfect for what he needs. The truck is going to be towing his tracksteer which is around 12k with the trailer, track-steer, claw attachment, and bucket. That is where the very short 1st gear will come in handy.

nice. I have been looking for a TD truck to just tow a car hauler (2k lbs is) and my car, mini trucks and shit (no more than 3-5K).

But I dont want a gas full sized, becasue I still need to drive something other than a BT Jetta to work and rack miles on that thing. So I want something around 16mpg+ highway.
