new truck need help with fuel saving mods!
#11
with that kind of gas mileage, there has to be something wrong...when the last time you did a full tune up? as every one said a custom tune will help but you should be ATLEAST getting 10-12MPG at the worst now...lol Ive heard of people getting better mileage pulling a trailer loaded with 8k on it

But as was said earlier, 6.4 mpg is way too low, something is not right. I would start with the cheapest fixes first, like plugs, fuel filter, injector cleaner, etc. to see if it starts improving. Best of luck and keep us posted!
