Re: [RC] endurance trucks - Dyane SmithHeidi Smith wrote: I have two trailers, both heavy steel--3-horse with LQ (about 4500# empty), and a 10-horse stock trailer (about 4800# empty). Mileage doesn't seem to drop much with the latter. And I pass a lot of semis. My mileage goes up if I slow down. Boy, I guess you can never tell how heavy steel can be: my gooseneck, modified stock with dressing room weighs 6160#. But---I get the same 10+/- mpg with or without the horses. I do, however, keep a rock solid old lady 55 mph. Truck: 89 F250, 460 engine, 410 axle ratio, 89,960. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= http://www.endurance.net/ads/seabiscuit.html Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
