Lonestar CM871 MPG

[Lonestar10]

Yes sorry rawze truck has a factory Boost gauge but no pyro as of yet.
ive watched your videos and know i should drive by them but with my time constraints shipper to receiver to next shipper and being green to tarping/strapping/chaining im a bit slower than a vet so i cant slow down to anything really nominal. im typically loaded around 74-79k/lbs with maybe 25-75mile bounces between loads

when on flat ground at 67MPH boost is typicaly steady just above the 10lbs mark so maybe 12-13lbs and when i pull a hill it can hit 35 to right below the 40lb mark but every now and then it will throw a fit hit 30lbs then fall off to 20-25lbs with no warning lights"maybe a silent derate?"

with the huge lonestar radiator for the most part the fan never kicks on and sits around 185 degree mark. really only gets above it when taking off from a stop but at speed and small hills its rock steady going up on the decently large longer pull hills.

I have tried driving with magic plug undone and it doesn't effect mileage at all but power seems to be the same.

as im not an authority holding owner-op im leased on with a small company getting a very good 88% of every loads pay so its a decent gig and they get great rates and only ask to be ontime and have a clean truck and trailer to the best of our ability.

i guess im just to used to seeing the 8mpg steady my 2016 cascadia at Crete with dd15 and manual 10sp i drove and i definitely didn't drive for fuel mileage it was get to the governor and hold it there as fast and as much as possible at 65mph it was pedal to the floor from 0 to 65 chasing the pennies per mile.

im a bit more lenient on my own truck not smashing the accelerator.

sorry if im a bit longwinded i just want ever bit of info i can offer out there.
