Real world mpg?

[vern650]

I was getting the 12-14 range when I worked a mile from my house, but it jumped up to the 15-17 when I got a job on the other end of the valley about 15 or so miles away.

the buddy I mentioned with the lb7 zf6 gets that awesome mileage in town but has never gotten over 19 mpg on the highway. He does like to drive pretty fast on the highway though.

14.5 avg here. Mostly shorter distance trips. If I reset dic before a longer trip closer to 18. Towing anything with wind resistance like an enclosed trailer gets 13/14

I get 18mpg highway at 70mph. That's squeezing everything we could out of the tune. In town is about 14-15.

Towing 12k driving like an ass up to flag I got 10.3. Driving conservitavely and cruising 65 I got 13-14

Well my wife surprised me with getting my side windows tint matched to the rear windows so that's her way of saying I'm keeping my truck lol.

I was wondering too. Presently I'm getting in city 11-12 mpg that's with an enclosed trailer attached and when I hit the highway on the weekend(empty) trips,I get up too 24+mpg.

Stock LBZ 2500 EC/SB 4x4 19 empty hwy, havent towed/hauled yet, & 14 city.

Stock LMM 2500 EC/SB 4x4 17 empty hwy, 8 towing, & 14 city.

Stock LML 2500 EC/SB 4x4 16 empty hwy, 7 towing, & city driving 13.



My LBZ tuned, 265 tires, & removed the CAT, avg 20 empty hwy, havent towed/hauled yet, & city 15.

I was hoping to hear an average of 18+ in the city. High hops I guess lol

 

[CaptPhil]

I never average over 18 highway, and normal is in the 15 range combined. I do run pretty fast though, and have a hard time keeping my foot out of it, so that doesn't help much.

My 06 LLY will do no less than 16 city/18 hwy. Only mod is a 4" downpipe back exhaust on 285s. For what it's worth I lost 2 mpg going from 265/75R16 to 285/75R16. That said I think my next tire/wheel combo will be 17 H2s with 31" A/Ts
