Got a couple of older diesels here, '96 3500 Dodge with 4:11's and a 96 Ford 250 with 3:90's? Not real sure on it but i know the RPMS are less at the same speed as the old one ton with 4:11's was. If I keep the speed down under 65 I can get around 19-20 in the Ford and about 16-18 in the Dodge empty. Loaded they both run about 11_14 depending on how many tractors are on the trailers at the time. Ford has 186,000 on it and we just had the wiring harness on the glow plugs changed. Other than that no probs. No probs with the Dodge yet but it is only on 86,000 miles. There is a guy I know who has a 93 Ford 250 with a chip that claims 22 in town and about 27 on te interstate. he and a few others who have rode with him say the same thing but I have not seen it personally.
