Here are some equivilents to help you make sure that you are working with the same numbers as your neighbors here to the south.
1 US mile = 1.609 km.
1 km = .621 miles
1 US gal. = 3.785 L
1 L = .264 US gal.
Miles/km divided by us gal/ liters = miles per gal/liters per km
Hope this helps! I am a newbie to df and in the process of looking for a 03 or newer 3500 Quad cab 4 X 4 LB SRW CTD that fits my budget. I have been through your area and it is quite beutiful! My wife and I are looking to move to Northern B.C. this year to work at a camp and have spent several summers up in the Houston Smithers area. I am learning so much from this sight! Wow what a resource! It has really helped me to know what to look for!

RE: Fuel millage
You didnt state if you had 4.10 gears or not. That will definately have an effect on you mileage. I have 20000 miles on mine and I average only 15 mpg overall. I have 4.10s . I did just switch to synthetic though so hopefully it will improve just a tad. Plus the dealer has been backordered on fuel filters so I havent gotten to change mine yet. Maybe I will get a little more then. Good luck.
