: lb7 mpg.....
dmax1987 01-18-2010, 09:56 PM i have an 04 with 140,000 on it, got ppe hot plus 2 set on 8 ,150gph lift pump, trans mods exaust, intake, etc..... on 33x12.5, i was jus curious to see wat kind of mpg everyone is gettin with all of there mods and such, i figured it up and i was only gettin around 17 on highway and around 14 in city, i would have thought id be getting better mpg, so as i was sayin, im jus curious to see wat yall are getting compared to me.....
thefermanator 01-18-2010, 10:32 PM I'm averaging 20 MPG mixed driving pretty consistently. This thing is driving me nuts with it constantly getting 20 or right there no matter how I drive it. I have gotten as high as right at 23 though before. PPE's timing in the lower MM3 of fuel is a tad low for the best milage.
72splitbumper 01-18-2010, 10:56 PM Mine gets about 16-17 daily driving to work and back,and 20-21 on the highway.Thats with it being about 100hp(give or take) over stock.
18-19 depending on my driving, this may improve with a couple issues I corrected. I figure with a 4x4 dually I can't complain...
nmband13 01-18-2010, 11:18 PM city 16-17mpg, highway 70mph > 20mpg, highway 80mph > 18.7mpg, running what i have in my sig...265/75/16 tires
DEEZL DADDY 01-19-2010, 10:01 PM I'm getting around 20 mpg mixed driving and about 22 highway and 14 pulling 1oooo# boat.
rtquig 01-20-2010, 06:54 PM Mixed driving I get 18-19 summer and 16.5-17.5 winter.
aprr454 01-20-2010, 07:08 PM 6-10mpg pulling. 12-15mpg empty. 15mpg is rare.
Brad92 01-20-2010, 08:03 PM About 19 mostly highway, stone stock.
Mr BaadBoy 01-20-2010, 08:14 PM I am only getting 10 hand calculated in City
Towing 10,000, 8-12
Not to much Highway but guessing 18-22.
rascal51 01-20-2010, 08:33 PM 16.6 mpg over the last 11,702 miles in 18 months. That is mixed city and highway with minimal towing. Interesting thing is, and the reason I started keeping careful track, I was averaging a touch over 19 mpg 11,000 miles ago and there has been a very steady decline. Haven't figured it out. Changed air and fuel filters, tires are good and properly inflated, no changes to where or how I drive it. Total mileage is 70k. It is a mystery. Truck is bone stock.
bassboat 01-20-2010, 09:11 PM I'm getting about 16.5 (hand calc) - averaging 30-35 MPH per the DIC. I gave up a couple MPG between going from worn tires to new ATs, and putting on the ladder rack (over-cap model, hangs out beyond the cab:(). I run the sixgun on 2 or 3 and drive like an old fart mostly.
UncleShank 01-22-2010, 11:56 AM 03 lb7 with 341,400 miles getting 21mpg highway :) dont know about city though :(
acemaster101 01-22-2010, 12:08 PM With a Bully Dog on Performance, cold air and a 4" Turbo back it got 22ish driving on the street. 26 going down a highway at 80MPH!! according to the diplay on the dash..

Hand check it and I bet you are closer to 18-20 going down the highway. The DIC is notoriously false in stock form, and when you tune it is almost guarranteed to be off. I know my wifes G6 is off 12% straight from the factory, and have heard it is optimistic by about 10% in most all of them.
acemaster101 01-22-2010, 04:08 PM well i would hand check it but it got stolen a few months ago now... its stripped right down and beaten sitting in a junk yard. hense my display picture..
