Default Cummins 3.9 4BTA In 1994 Dodge Ram 1500

I am still in the process of doing the swap. I got a 4 speed automatic for a 1991 dodge 3500 2X4 with the cummins in it.
I dont have that heavy of a foot. I was wondering if anybody knew what kind of mpg I would be getting.
4BTA 125hp 375 ft. lbs.

Thankyou. Thats about what I thought, but I heard someone say close to 40mpg and I thought that was a little high. that sounds more like it.
