What is the best mileage you fellas can get out of a 5.9? I have been thinking of going diesel, just not sure if I should.

Dink 10-08-2011 10:31 PM

I did a little test......both in my gas and diesel truck have them onboard computer........where my gas was getting 22, diesel gets 40mpg and on highway, at 70, gas 17 diesel 23

when mine had stock tires I would get 17ish in and around town and 19-21 on interstate and that was figured with pen and paper. I loved my truck but got tired of the note and extra fuel cost so now I drive a paid for truck and just pay out the butt to keep gas in it:D

Dink 10-08-2011 11:21 PM

Fyi.....my other truck is for sale......kills me cause she's beautiful!!! And runs perfect!!!

Slidellkid 10-09-2011 12:34 PM

Dink, your diesel is getting 40 mpg?

Dink 10-09-2011 12:41 PM

I had the old 165 HP Cummins diesel. I got 21 in town and 25 on the highway with a 253 rear end. It was just so dang loud and had a lot of vibration.

Don't believe the onboard mpg. Mine with 5" exhaust, cold air & programmer gets 19 around town & 24 on good interstate.

Slidellkid 10-09-2011 03:03 PM

wtretrievers,

That is still some pretty dang good mpg considering the horsepower and pulling ability.

eman 10-09-2011 03:13 PM

B.S. Chel told me she bought the truck for her. She just lets Tim drive it.
Nice toy,Brudda.

huntin fool 10-09-2011 08:51 PM
