I was just a touch over 80,000 lbs GCVW, fortunately I do have a weight exemption for my EAPU. Despite the challenging terrain from Bakersfield, CA to Coachella, CA I still managed just over 10 mpg for today’s leg….better than what I thought I might get. Martin Jez you asked

10.435 MPG over 5061 miles far for this dispatch with speeds up to 75 MPH for extended periods. I’m planning on 75 MPH+ in Texas for the next 600 miles rabbitee,230 LBS GCVW today….stay tuned.

In this fuel efficiency example I looked at my run from Phoenix, AZ to Grand Ridge, FL. For the trip over all I came up just shy of 10 mpg at 9.928 I ran the Phoenix, AZ to San Antonio, TX at cruise control set speeds of 75 MPH. Temperatures ranged from 118 degrees during the

Two weeks, two loads (52,000 GCVW / 80230 GCVW ) and 6695 miles run. Yes I manage my speed and time, as such I run as fast as necessary (75mph ) as slow as possible (57 mph)….10.268 mpg so far including some extra idle time because of the extreme +110 degree heat in the

I guess I’ll call this my circle around America dispatch. Unfortunately I just missed my goal of 10 mpg, close but no cigar. A few things to keep in mind that would have definitely put me over the 10 mpg mark despite the heavier general van freight loads and extended 75 mph legs.

Here’s an interesting comparison on the same stretch of road on the same day. While this example is by no means definitive it’s still pretty interesting to see how the MVT Driect Drive spec compared to the Alpha Drivers downsped overdrive spec in fairly similar circumstances.

Here’s a quick update on the Run On Less MPG heavy hitters. Henry Albert is leading the pack with his overdrive downsped Detroit powertrain + 6x2 lift axle he’s currently setting at 11.677 MPG….congratulations and great job so far Henry. Next up is the MVT team operation with
