i have almost 6k miles on mine and i have never gotten above 13.3 mpg and i drive between vegas and cali on open freeway for 600 mile stretches i dont see how this 7mpg diffrence is possible? even if i drive more aggressivly and have a tune? are u never driving ur truck in "m" more or moving ur shifter to the left and engaging "sport" mode? even if not it still seems like an impossible discrepancy imo. i just cant stand driving my truck in non sport mode, it has such a terrible throttle lag and by 40mph its already in 5th gear. |
I do drive in Sport mode from time to time, especially when passing. I rarely engage M mode but when the traffic permits, I will from time to time. i have around 4500 miles on my truck now and in the city, I consistently get 14.5 mpg on a 15 mile, 45 minute commute each way to work.
