That is true, but I think it has more to do with terrain and driving style than the vehicle. With all things being equal (tire size, gear ratio, mod's, etc...), the same truck operated at 80mph in the hills of east TN will not fair as well as a vehicle operated at 55mph in the flatlands of Nebraska. That's my take on the huge variance.carnivore said:From what I read on the diesel sites you can have 2 identical trucks and one will get 20+ and the other will get 15 MPG.
I suspect thats part of it, but I also suspect theres a bit of a variance in the trucks themselves, kind of like what we get with our Rangers. Back when I had my 05 I had two buddies that had identical machines with identical mods to mine and those machines never ran alike.commanderjjones said:That is true, but I think it has more to do with terrain and driving style than the vehicle.

I think I still have to beat at the moment.....but it definitely didn't have those numbers when stock. Actually, my HP number is still a little under that (about 345), but the torque was about 790 on the dyno.carnivore said:Besides, I have a 360 HP 650 FT pounds, Chevy Duramax, so its already fast 8) :lol: :lol:
So what you are saying is I have to make some "minor" mods 8) :lol:commanderjjones said:I think I still have to beat at the moment.....but it definitely didn't have those numbers when stock.
