There is no scenario where the truck would get 15 mpg on the highway at 80....its impossible and that has been the experience of everyone I know that owned or owns one. At 80 on the freeway its a 11-12 mpg truck every time I concur Ben....mine was very thirsty.....but i have seen the odd one that gets miracle mileage....my wifes friend has one....i didnt believe her till I witnessed it 1st hand.

I'm not sure what the older trucks had. mine is a 2012 crew with 3.73's and is completely stock. i believe the newer ones have 4.10's. I'm not debating that they can be thirsty, especially when towing. I've seen as little as the 6's with a strong head wind. Fireball asked for mileage and I relayed my experience as an owner.

I would think that there would be a big difference in MPG if you are comparing 3.73's to 4.10's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never really asked anyone who has a newer one what they are getting. Call me crazy (i know some already have), but this truck seems to have a sweet spot when cruising on the highway and it seems to be at 80. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fireball 440 Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 I'm sure a lot of them came with 3.55 as well, but for a working truck I want 3.73 or more gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said I don't really care if any of you believe me. I'm certainly not on the interwebs to prove anything to anybody. This truck has been twice the truck compared to any of the other trucks I've had and I've been very happy with it, especially the mileage. Freak truck?? Maybe, but I'm glad i own it.

Calm down there Skeedoo Homo I believe you on the 373's , it's just rare that's all . They are good trucks and I won't say they are not even though GM is the biggest pos company on earth , they just get poor MPG's with the 6.0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodtick Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 My little cream puff came with 456 cast. You wouldn't believe the fucktards that want to say it didn't. Most of my friends buying 3/4 tons are getting gas pig gasser instead of the oil burner. They would rather have a gas pig than problems. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
