200 for 3/4 of a tank average.

26 gal. tank.

if i let it go below a 1/4 tank itll cost me 70+ to fill up :(

200 miles per tank. 26 gallon.

i fill up when the gas light turns on which means i still have about 5-6 more gallons. so its 200 per 20 gallons give or take.

Long box has a 35 gallon tank.


I can hit 450 miles with my fuel light on and sucking fumes. I just filled up from a half tank and averaged 7.69 miles per gallon. There are a TON of hills around here. But you know what, life goes on. Get over the fuel usage. Get a Kia or Prius if you want 896459782485745 miles per gallon. This is a truck. Drive it. For me, I think the cost is worth it. I'd rather feel safe driving a 2 ton truck getting 8MPG instead of saving a couple dollars in a tin can while putting my life at risk with all the 2500 Heavy Duty trucks driving around now. I value my life.

1. If you had a misfire, wouldn't it be throwing a P-code or check engine light? I know for sure that you would feel a misfire.

2. How much extra weight is there from the HD package? I know that it has the HD T-case which is close to the LD and a couple of extra leaf springs? What else am I missing? (Let me clarify that I am not comparing 1/2 ton to 3/4 ton. I just want to know where the weight difference between a 2500HD and 2500LD comes from. I don't think it can be a whole lot.)
