    After hand calculating it. I averaged 17mpg over 1700 miles of driving. I am impressed since it doesn't have highway tires on. And the EGR hasn't been deleted and it still has a cat/muffler on the exhaust.

      It'll go down of course but Its not nearly as drastic as a gas engine under load.

      Was the excursion a 7.3 or 6.0?

      It was the good engine, 7.3L

        It's a shame they discontinued them because of sales. They were such beasts compared to suburbans.

          True but I enjoy my consistent 18-19mpgs in my 6.5 burb. Its a great motor if taken care of properly just like anything else.

            6.5s should get 21mpg.

            That is originally what I started looking at to buy. I love the way they sound.

              I do too, can't wait to get a 3" turbo back on mine. I've gotten 20's doing pure highway but thats my city/highway average.

                I didn't have a trailer.

                You're funny.  Why lie?  You said guys with trucks who don't tow are douche bags.  I think you were towing.  Was it just a small trailer?

                    That's so impressive out of such a big truck.

                        This truck is actually a little bitch 2500. It has highway mirrors instead of towing mirrors. It has the best MPG gear ratio. It didn't come installed with a 5th wheel and it's never had a trailer hitch on it. This truck was a total douche bags truck which is perfect for me. Super douche it up.
