Cecil that is excellent!  I used to drive a C70 tri-axle dump in the mid 
70's.  Actually 2 of them. One had a 5 x 4 duplex transmission, the other 
had a 13 speed.  Neither one of them got over 4 or 5 mpg loaded and maybe 7 
or 8 empty.  Of course most of the time the throttle plate was wide open.
