This report was run on September 23, 2016 and we have 223382 miles on our 2015 Freightliner Cascadia. 
 
Lifetime highlights that I enjoy
 
Average speed 51.87
Average MPG 12.32
Percent of Idle 3.85
DEF MPG 478.88
 
 
We have a road peak speed of 88.5 MPH that was done in Texas for a short period of time coming off of a hill in an 85 MPH part of the state and this was done at 7:00 in the evening so that means Bob was driving. 
 
A mechanic performed one parked regen or regeneration due to a sensor fault on the DEF system and the mechanic found no problems.   He performed a parked regen just to be sure.

Bob and Linda started their driver careers after their children left home for college in 2000. Bob started as a driver for a large motor carrier with Linda as a rider. They decided to enter the Expedite industry as team drivers in 2005 and purchased their first Freightliner. Both, Bob and Linda have had their Class A licenses since the early 80's starting out driving in the oil field and hauling grain as fill in drivers where Bob worked as a diesel mechanic. Linda worked at the local country courthouse in data processing.

Tadas That is what made our mind up for me many years ago to buy our first Cascadia

That's terrific gas mileage.
I need to run the numbers to look at the economics of buying the cascadia evolution, I suspect that savings in fuel might make it very compelling
