As far as the fuel mileage, I've gotten somewhere between 15-20 MPG, probably closer to 20, with some North GA mountain driving. Honestly, I don't know what size engine it is. It's either the 304 or the 345, and it has a 2-barrel. I was told that I have to get the serial number off the lower side of the block to determine if it's a 304 or a 345. After I climbed underneath and saw the 1" thick caked grease and mud covering the block, I decided to tackle that project another time, or ask my wife to do it. If you're looking at the crew cab, it probably has the 392 engine which is as strong as an ox but you pay for it at the pump. But it might have the 345 which is decent on gas. I have '65 IH 1-ton standard cab 4x4 with the 392 and it can pull a house (maybe 2) but I'm lucky to get 10 mpg. International made a lot of crew cabs and built them well.
