Depends:
How heavy is the vehicle?
How fast are you driving it?
Are you climbing the Sierras, or are you running on flat land?
Are you pulling a toad?
Are you running on the highway, or in the city?
How heavy is your right shoe at stoplights?
Taking all of the above into consideration, anywhere from 5 - 10 mpg.
YMMV,

Might squeeze 12+ mpg under ideal conditions. Quite possible. Also may get as low as 4-5 mpg.
My 24,000 lb Crown 10-wheeler gets 12 mpg flat and level with no wind at 55 mph. 250 Cummins.
So many factors determine fuel mileage that it ends up an individual thing. Good luck. Henry |
