Hate to say it, i have had a deere, case and komatsu machines and none of them would burn $40 an hour in fuel. That is just nuts. Average about 4 gallons an hour here for a machine that size.
I have a dozer with an M11 cummins in it, wieghs 60K and if you absolutely stand on it all day long you might burn 10 gallon an hour.
