Man I am super impressed with this truck. Borrowed it to get my dead truck in moab. Got 17 mpg going 80 (as much as possible) with an empty trailer on the way out. And ended up averaging 12.4 mpg on the way home through the mountains. Pulled Vail pass at 60 mph loaded and Eisenhower hill at 60. I want smashing on it either. Truck just settled in to about 3500-3800 rpm in 5th gear and climbed probably 1/3-1/2 throttle. Towed straight at 80 with the jeep on the trailer. I liked the 8 speed, gave plenty of options for going down passes and controlling speed. Would recommend.
