Guess donkey boy got what he wanted a rise out of everyone... I wouldn't have waisted that much time on his thread due to the fact of lack of response on his part, I believe both sides have excellent points but really 25.9???? far fetched!!!!

I've gotten that good but I don't think it could happen on a 6.7 dully. I've got a 3/4 ton and got 26 on my way to/from my sisters in Lubbock. Running right at 70 all the way. I've had a best of 28 but that was with a tail wind.

Is this going off the overhead or hand calculated?

no i dont

i am not saying its impossible, just pointing out that with the average statistics you would be in the less then 0.001% category with MPGs like that

some will get 22~23 on the highway but most will never get that high. exceeding it is a rare bird indeed and will require more proof then an internet post to be believable

no hard feelings, just pointing out that i am in disbelief about those numbers
