Default Milage to Engine Hours

Hey guys, so we are up here at work and bunch of us were looking at our work trucks and seeing we have like 3000 engine hours and only like 40,000kms on our truck.

What are some of your real life stats on this? Post your miles / kms along with you engine hours and lets see what is kind of an average. I bet when looking at used trucks that if you looked at these figures you could tell if the 320,000kms "highway miles" truck is really highway miles.

100,000kms and 1500hrs = avg about 67km/hr where maybe a city grocery getter might only have an average like 30km/hr.(same milage with higher hours)

Looks like you only average less than 15 km per hour..................... lots of idle time, eh?

Something isn't right there. If that was a new truck with only 98 km on it there is no way it should have that many engine hours. Could you have meant 9800 km? Or 2.50 hours?

out site in the winter is cold so sometimes the truck only shuts off to put gas in it. we have a max speed of 30km/hr on site but 80% of the area is 15km/hr.
