Mpg
I usually average 20. I got 25 going to and from Abilene TX from Dallas (About a 390 mile round trip on some good year 265/65/18s). I just got some new LT tires (275/65/18), and I noticed that I lost about 15% of my city mileage, but my freeway mileage went through the roof! I also noticed a 20% drop in mileage while towing. I normally got 15-18 mpg while towing anything of any weight, but now it's down to 12-15. Do you guys notice the motor sputter every now and again at a stop light? I thing that my ECU is limited at 20MPG average. I notice immediate power gains from a tank of premium gas, but by the time I burn an 8th, it feels normal again after a stop. It's my hypothesis that the ECU will change the fuel map after you stop the truck.
I haven't been on any long road trips in my truck and the best I've gotten is 19.6 mpg w/ mixed city and highway driving. My truck does seem to have rough point in the idle or sputter like what you mention. I have also felt the sensation of more power after a fill up, but I just though it was the placebo effect.
I get 13mpg. 14mpg if i'm lucky......don,t know why? Drive down the hill in the morning and up the hill in the afternoon....... And my average is 13-14 mpg. Its a v6 come on... What is wrong with this picture? Love my truck though just wish it gave me better gas mileage......
Dude, with an empty truck going to Abilene TX from Dallas (about 400 round trip), I got a solid 25MPG. And I just got back from towing a car from MO through the hilly parts of OK and got 12(this is all before the power wire). I think that the question now is "what is right with my truck?"
