Just wondering what kind of MPG the 6.5 turbo diesel gets, and Auto vs. manual.

Thanks!

mines a manual and I get around 17 in town

i get between 14 and 17

My best tank was 22mpg at low altitude all highway. At home in NM@5000ft my highway tanks are 16-19 and my city tanks are 13-16. I'm hoping to improve fuel economy when I change my factory fuel injectors which have 196K miles on them.

14-17, 4.10's, 4L80E auto

14-17 here w/5sp but my idles alot too and I don't always drive for MPG either.

Mileage is very much dependent on right foot closer to 1800 rpm better mpg will be peak torque is around 2800 rpm, with my 3:73 rears gear in OD I have gotten as much as 20-22 mpg running aroung 50-55 mph with about 600# of stuff in the bed, I normally get 14-17 depending how hard I'm running 16 is my avg at 70-75mph empty on cruise control, 13mpg when pulling 12K loaded GN trailer.

MPG much dependant upon driving style and rear ratio. Auto & man doesn't seem to have as much effect as does gearing, and footin'.

Mine is 10 @ avg 65 mph & at best 13 @ 55mph. 4.10 rear, GMC Savana BUS (no comparision)

towing 13 @ 70
notowing 14 @ 70

rpm limited to a GPS confirmed 83mph baby! lol

time for some 245 / 85 r16s !!

6.5LTD, 4L80-e, 4.10, dually
