So that equates to an average of 34.17 miles/engine hour. Maybe a tad low, but I don't think out of the spectrum of what most users have posted.

Do you do a lot of sort trips, idling or city driving?

My truck has a current average of 42.6 miles/engine hour for comparison.

Thats about normal, either way it would just mean that you had more/less idling/city/hwy driving. There is no right or wrong. Mine is arond 1230 hrs with 39K miles or 33 MPH.

It depends on what i'm doing

Winter= lots of idleing

Summer= More driving, less idleing, unless i'm hooking or unhooking trailers then it just sits and idles.
