My 92 Dodge 4WD, 5 speed, extra cab and longbed got "21 MPG" empty at 65 MPH for many years. That is until I found out it was lying to me. Dodge used a little speedo-correction gearbox between the speedometer cable and Getrag trans. I found out if was off and made MPGs read better then they really were. Once I recalibrated it, my true mileage was 19 MPG at 65 MPH. Still better then my 94 Ford. My 94 F250 4WD, extra cab, long-bed with a 7.3 IDI turbo diesel never did better then 15 MPG at 65 MPH in New York. Here in northern Michigan it gets up to 17 MPG (flatter highways).
I just bought a 2008 Ford truck with a 6 speed automatic and a 3-valve 281 cubic inch V8. Took a 300 mile trip at 65-80 MPH in the Michigan Upper Peninsula and got 21.8 MPG for trip. I am impressed. Much cheaper to drive then my diesel Ford but much lighter too.

I dropped off the tractor expecting a transformation from a 6 volt to a 12 volt system utilizing the original generator housing, and a total rewiring of the whole tractor. The front end center pin bushing was worn also so I ask that they replace it if they had time. Well, that’s wha
