The SH will use slightly more, but--When I was a kid on the farm, I typically drove our H from 7AM-Noon, 1 PM--5:30 PM. Filled it morning and at noon. Occasionally forgot to put gas in at noon -- it would run dry about 3-4 PM. That is about 7 hours on 17.5 gallons at WOT, full load when doing tillage, or 2.5 gallons/hour. If you burned half a tank, 8.75 gallons in 3 hours that converts to 2.9 gallons per hour. Not scientific, but it seems to work. Sounds like you were fully loaded. Most of the tillage I did was "full load" in 3rd gear, would not pull in fourth. Plowing was fully loaded in 2nd, that would be the max fuel consumption, probably very close to your 2.9 gph. I think yours is normal.
