Which ones??? I work at a Mack/Volvo dealer and havent heard those numbers before... Maybe 10 or 11 out of some of the old D12C. Soon as 02 hit and EGR started in on these things mileage like that doesnt really exist anymore. Anything in the 15 or 16L wont see any higher then 8 bobtailing. Even the D13F's CF is running with the tiny daycabs arnt getting those numbers. But again lots of EGR and now catalysed DPF hurts mileage too. Ive heard some of the old detroits would get around 11 but then your getting pretty old then. One of the old V92's I think or an early 60 series.
