MPG is a reflection of equipment and driving style.I previously had a 88 F250 460 gasser, got between 7 and 9 Mpg, so to say the least I have that beat all to He__. :cry:Currently my hand calculated mileage by the fill up is;Highway @ 65-70 = 19 to 20 mpg.City = 14 to 15 mpgTowing = about 13-14 mpg (7,000# 5th wheel 12' tall).Did I mention I love this truck!:hyper:F250 ate a qt of oil about every 1,000 miles.Cummins with 239,000 still full at 1st oil change @ 4,000 miles.

Just to stir the pot, I weight about 11k (rigged out welding tk) Before the blue chip vp and nothing changed 14.75 avg. best 15.25 with EZ and rv275 - 1st blue chip vp 15.0 no matter what, up hill, in town, 15 and no mods. :shrug:. 2nd blue chip vp 16.0 avg. I have got 17 on flat at 55 and no modsThis new to me eng. I am going to install, guy said he avg. about 19-20 on a 3/4 ton 2wd stock everything auto trans.I am curious why a rattling truck with 252k that weighs 11k gets what it does. would this dully get 19-20 if it where stock? I bought it and had it losded out before I could check mileage.New to me eng., I think I am going to run no ez and no ddp50hp and see what happens. I really think I need to put the blue chip pump in while it's easy though.:smart:
