let's see, heres my theoretical equation. it's still only a theory.
fuel milage: heavy truck + lots of mods * metric $hit ton of torque & horsepower = I don't give two farts about gas milage. :D :rockon:

I dont know for sure but I can say its waaay better than I feared. I had nightmares about watching the needle drop to empty but its really not bad. My 03 Chrysler T&C gets about 16 in the city with the air on so I guess the L isnt bad at all!

I didn't use to check mine but for about a month now I have been driving 100 miles a day to work 90%freeway.
So I am visiting the fuel crooks a bit more often.
70 mph ave 16-17 mpg, 80 mph about 15mpg

I don't think I've ever driven the L in the city, and rarely on the highway (I live kind of out in the sticks). But in rural driving, I'm averaging 14 MPG.

I get about 280-300 miles per full tank. I guess it could be worse but what other vehicle with this gas mileage would you rather drive??? I can only think of one and its not as bad...(Terminator)

I pulled down about 10 mpg this tank. Usually anywhere btwn 16 to as high as 20, but this tanks been all city, and L fest, and a new exhaust, so....
