It would be really interesting to see the then fuel economy figures for each of the vehicle types.

For higher speed stuff, I wonder how the B9s compare to the likes of the Streetdeck which despite having more efficient engines have less gears to work with. So at higher sustained speeds the more advantageous gearing in the B9s might mean overall they use similar amounts of fuel. And given the price of acquiring Streetdecks compared to keeping the B9s (or acquiring cheap used ones), that might tip the overall cost in favour of the much older B9s.
