I recently purchased a 99 Chieftain diesel.  Has anyone determined what is the best speed for the most MPG?  So far, I have driven between 60 and 65 and get a little better than 10 MPG.  However, I find it shifts down into fifth gear fairly often.  RPM at that speed is about 1750.  Anyone experimented with this?
