Anyone know how i can get better "diesel" mileage out of my 07' 5.9 4x4?

 

Not being an jerk or anything but getting rid of your 5" lift and 35" tires would help a lot.

 

No kidding i know that! It was around 18 stock but now its only around 13! Any thing else that can help though???

 

Injectors would help, especially since that sixgun runs pressure. A fully built tranny could help you if you're not too busy with your foot in it! And basically reviewing your driving manners and make some changes. My six gun yielde me better mileage than the Smarty does, but I'm running more power than the banks could put out, so I'm still happy with my 18mpg.

 

I wish i had just leveled my truck! Been alot better! Anything i can do to get mileage cheap!

 

Those 13.5" wide tires are whats killing you. I lost 3.5 mpg going with 12.5's. Be glad it is not a gasser, you would be 8 mpg with that lift and tires. You could always put 75psi pressure in your tires, that would help a lot

Look at one of those hydrogen systems, I do not know anyone who has one or has had one but they claim 25% better economy. I think it is snake oil but it may be what you are looking for.

 

i get 18.8 on the freeway with the cruise control on. (hand calculated)

 

Do you know any tires that are 35" tall but not 12.5 wide? I got 10" wide motos!

 

not with the 20" rims. just tried a quick search and found nothing in a 20

 

That sucks! Your lucky you get 18 with 37" i can't believe that! I only got that when my truck was stock!

 

how many miles you have on yours? I have about 32k and the more I put on it the better it got

try these guys. they might be able to help you find something in the size you are wanting.

 

I've got 33k on my truck with 3k on my tires right now!

 

what setting on the banks? i don't have much experience with them and kind of steer clear of them but won't go down that road. i lost 3mpg with this winter fuel and got most of it back with the smarty. i can't wait for summer fuel to come back so i can be back to normal.

 

I have to leave for a meeting. will check back laters.
