Superdog Posted February 16, 2013 Author Share Posted February 16, 2013 Fine looking ride! Hey, do you get the blue Super back now?That is a good sized shop you folks have there.JimGot the blue one back,but I'm going to get some work done on it before I start driving it again.Going to change injectors and do a little tweaking to try and get the fuel mileage up.The red one's running on about 20 gal. less fuel a day doing the same thing,plus hauling 4000 lbs more legal weight per trip.That adds up to quite a bit at the end of the week.That quonset building is just cold storage where we park our trailers,store tires,etc.,it's 40 x 240.Dad's shop is right across the street,it's a 40x60.

jakebrake86 Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 I think the Rawhide has to be the nicest looking truck Mack makes today. Really just a classy looking ride, especially under that bull wagon! Let me know what all you do to your blue truck, Mike. I'm getting 4.8 mpg out of an E7 350 and getting passed by everything. I'm going to run the rack and check for boost loss, maybe get the pump pressure checked... Not sure if I need injectors or not, yet...

VPZINC Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Nice looking truck! Really like the grille. I see he has 9 lights on the top. Does it have the same high spot on the roof between the outside roof light and the center 3 like a CL has?

Does it have the same high spot on the roof between the outside roof light and the center 3 like a CL has?That grille was a PITA to put in.The 9 light deal kinda pissed me off,not so much that he put the extra lights on,but for the fact he took the horns off.It does have the same hi spot,but you gotta look really close to tell.

Was just curious because I didn't notice the extra 4 being higher then the original 5. Good luck with it!

rsb502 Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 I'm surprised there are any e7's out there getting less than 6-7mpg, the old 93 I had is still running getting 6.8 most I've run got at least 6 and closer to 7. I would guess you got to do some gear swapping to get into the power band and get those rpm down to get the mileage up. That rawhide looks good, I did 9 cab lights on the 06 Granite and I'm trying to get em here to do it on the 85. I don't know about that louvered grille, it looks good just dont know if i like it better than the factory elite grille. Good luck with the Superdog, keep us informed on what you do to it, I'm curious now.
