[QUOTE="sawfun, post: 6346795, member: 120299"] My 97 Dodge 2500 4× 4 5.9 5spd had a 4,800 lb load of wood and got 23 mpg. On the flat I even had it to 70 mph but backed down to 55 due to the tire rating I was way over on. My M35A3C deuce and a half weighs 13,300 lbs empty and gets 13 mpg all day long in town or on the get loaded or not. It has a 3116 and Alison 4 spd auto. 11 mpg on the steep Cascade Mountain grades. Howevwr top speed is 60mph at 3000 rpm. Unfortunately, it has very poor city manners as far as visibility and right turns go. I can squeeze 3 cords in but generally haul 2 - 2 & 1/2. It doesnt even run like it has a load and has never gotten stuck where my sure would have. [/QUOTE]
