Realistic 6.7, 6-spd Auto, 4x4 MILEAGE???
I am getting about 15mpg in the city and 19 on the highway, I got bout 800 miles on the truck is this going to get better as it breaks in????
|
Sounds about right to me... They should get better mileage as they break in, but yours is already average or above average...

Well not mine 9 towing, 11.5-12.3 city 14.7 hwy, I put a mp-8 to see if there would be a increase in mileage and none so far.....So count your blessing with those numbers.

Why is it the 4x4's get such bad mileage???
A buddy of mine has a 2wd 6.7 and a 6spd manual and he is getting 17 in the city and 21 on the highway... |
I'm around 15 City but haven't been on a trip without towing ,hope I get 19 like you but I doubt it. Towing 11m lbs. I'm at 10.5.
Mine has 12m on it now. |
My Dad is getting 16mpg highway with his MC dually 4x4/6.7/6spd auto. Can't really complain for such a large truck. Towing is around 11-12mpg.

Your numbers are excellent . . . anyone seeing improvements with bed tonno on?
|
I wouldn't expect to see any MPG improvement with the Tonneau on. I have an 03 as a personal truck and the tonneau makes no difference in MPG city or Highway. My 08 6.7 worker gets about 13 city, and 15-16 highway.

I guess thats really going to go out the window when I put the 33's on it!!!

I immedietly saw a 1-2 mpg difference!!! that works out to about 5-10% !!! I'd say that's a savings for sure.... pays for your cover & then some in the life of the truck. |
I get 18-19 mpg on the highway and 14-15 mpg city, haven’t done a full tank towing yet but I estimate it to be between 11-12 mpg. That's hand calculated, my overhead usually reads 1.5 mpg higher then what ever I calculate.
