    What RPM do you guys Get the Best MPG's at?

    In this configuration I get between 9 & 10 mpg at 2200 to 2300 rpm's and the trailer is always along. That translates into 50mph highway on straight diesel. I've taken the front rear axles out to free up the rears and run 60 psi in the front and 55 in all other tires including the trailer.
