    Tuner vs gear vendors for mpg

    Thanks man, yea I’ve slowed down to 65 and that made a huge difference. After reading your post I guess I will slow her down another 5mph were safe to do so to pick up what I can. I’m well aware there’s no magic device lol but a lot of guys swear by tuners. I agree with your comments, I don’t...

    Tuner vs gear vendors for mpg

    I think I’m going to try setting cruise at 65 next time...maybe 68 (I’m inpatient) was doin 73ish when I was getting that mpg hauling camper and hell when I got a wind break I’d look down and be doin almost 85 haha and had to slow down then. Like you said 5-10mph gonna cost me what, 20min so so...

    I don’t really think the tuner will help much due to reading some previous responses on fuel mileage, the udc just one tune? The edge sure is “generic” for my year but I interested in the screen package for monitoring trans temp and a few extras, and if I see a improvement sweet ya know

    Tuner vs gear vendors for mpg

    Hey guys I appreciate the input. Good to know others get the same mileage. Guy at work has a beautiful early 07 5.9 manual, fu**er gets 17’s mpg pulling his gooseneck. But I love my truck and I’ll stick with her I think

    It gets about 18 empty on highway if I drive 68-70. Average about 14-15mpg combined city/highway empty. Are you positive no EFI Live for a 03 common rail?

    Tuner vs gear vendors for mpg

    I want better mpg out of my 03 dually. It’s kind of embarrassing but I pulled my camper over the weekend and only got 10mpg highway (although wind speeds were high, 15mph+) Anyway I wish my 48re had one more gear so I think a GEAR VENDORS would help greatly. But guys at work are telling me EFI...

    Tow mode on 03 3500

    So I have an 03 3500 ram dually, are these built stock with tow mode? Because when I hit button on column shifter it only goes to O/D off. My buddy has 06 2500 and his column shifter button has 2 modes, 1)”tow /haul” and 2) O/D off. His has 3:73 and mine is a 4:10. So do I not have the tow...
