Re: [RC] MPG and diesel trucks - Milinda EllisDebbie, I have a 1997 F-250 Powerstroke diesel 2wd with a HD 5-speed and 160K miles on it. I average 22 mpg running empty with the tailgate up. I average 16mpg pulling an 18' [steel] stock combo w/dressing room and two LARGE mares in it, with all our "supplies." Don't know how fuel economy would improve if I drove with the tailgate down (less wind-drag). I also don't run A/C in the truck. I get about 18-19mpg 'in town'. I use cruise a lot because I have a lead foot. Diesel here is $2.89/gallon so I stay home alot. Not only is fuel cost lower here, but so are wages...
