In Reply to: Poor towing mileage - 2001 Cummins @ 10K... posted by Aaron A. Arnold on August 28, 2000 at 09:50:05:
The motor should get better as more miles are on
it. The 19 MPG isnt too bad. The 10-11 isnt good
but I have heard a lot of people who had old
12 valve Cummins Turbo's complain that the mileage
really sucked with their new 24 valve. A friend of
mine had a new 24 valve auto 3.54 and pulled a
trailer for his job and drove it hard and never got
above 9mpg when towing. My 360 gets 9-13 when
towing my old car. V10 will get about 9-10 so at
least you have power!
