[QUOTE="Shari, post: 382782, member: 1848"] I drive a diesel truck. 3/4 ton dodge ram, with the old cummins engine in it. I can pull my horse trailer (a 1990 steel model - not a new aluminum one) with 4 horses and tack, truck/trailer/cargo somewhere in the neighbrhood of 18000 pounds, and get 16-20mpg on the interstate. With no load, I can pull almost 27mpg out of it on the interstate. What kills diesels is accelerating. And how you drive is directly proportionate to the fuel economy you'll get. husband rarely gets over 12mpg when he drives my truck. easy child 1 and I can drive it and get almost 27mpg. [/QUOTE]
