Hi Jeff,
I would guess about 4mpg. That is the general rating on the M54 class
of gasoline truck, if I recall. Also, my M62 with the same engine is
rated specifically at 2.75mpg and, if tuned, I get that or close. So,
given the weight difference between the two - sounds about right.
So IN to CT, $500 in fuel? - still much cheaper than a haul.
Out-of-pocket, anyway.
Good luck!
Dan
Auburn, IN
