Hoss - There are lots of variables to MPG. How you drive the truck can make a huge difference. I can get 19 MPG on the highway (empty) if I run it around 1900 RPM and don't do alot of full throttle passing. I can also take the same drive and get 15 if I run less RPM and do the WOT passing.



I would also check the IAT like Marco reccomends. It made a 2+ mpg difference on my Dad's truck.



Good luck.
