What kind of mileage does your truck get?
I can get up to 23 on flat ground at 62mph. I average around 16 empty. 2002 3500 dually with tuner.
Wow that is impressive, I heard rumours of these trucks getting mileage in the 20s but I didn’t know it was possible with a Dually
When mine was a manual and 2wd (with a D60 dead front axle), it would get ~23 MPG at 60 MPH. 1994 3500 C&C, shortened to standard cab length, stock 8’ bed, singles installed all the way around, 3.55 gearing, and ~430k miles.
Very cool Videos!!! I can believe the mileage, I just put 900 miles on my 96 2wd 5 speed truck, all highway and got 22mpg going average speed of 75mph. These trucks seem to love constant speeds, as soon as you have to go on and off the throttle the mileage will go down significantly. Keep doing what your doing and ill keep watching!!
Thank you! Wow that is seriously impressive mileage for 75 miles an hour.
okay, not a truck here but in my old 98 3.8l v6 mustang I get 30 - 31mpg.
Variable data:
weight/distribution: 3,010lbs, 50/50 (front to rear)
Transmission: Stock T-5 WC (long gear ratios, 0.73:1 O/D)
Final Drive: 3.08:1
Cruising speed: 60 - 65mph
Engine RPM while cruising: ~1800rpm
tire size: 26"-ish tires.
Tread type: winter/snow (mostly all-season tire type)
Lead/Feather foot: feather foot.
A big factor I found why people waste a LOT of fuel is because they just ramp up the rpms passed 2000rpm, and just lead footing it.
jk, seriously though I'm happy that I get GREAT gas mileage and I'm glad diesel engines exist too because they are way more efficient than gas engines (combustion and fuel economy wise.)
Fun fact: Rudolph Diesel was the inventor who made the world's first diesel engine, and the fuel that was supposed to be used was peanut oil.
That aside, I love your truck and have a wonderful day! : )
👍👍👍
Excellent editing on this one! I'm excited about the xterra project!!
Awesome thanks!
Lifted dually has Kelowna written all over it...ya rocker!!!!💪💪
You know it!
Most impressed I’ve been with my 95 was from South Arkansas to Houston pulling a 7500lb camper got about 16-17mpg going about 55-60 on average because it’s mostly backroads also a single cab dually fully stock on 33 a/ts
Yeah that’s pretty impressive
Hope! the town of no hope!
Rambo 1 filmed there in the 80s
Amazing mountains around there
I have 37 on my 12v too. With my 4:11s I love it on the road. Off road and rock crawling I want lower gears. That divorced 205 would be an awesome double case for low low. It would also get rid of the two piece rear shaft and lengthen the front for better angle
Yep
One thing than nobody has ever done is putting a turbo Diesel sprinter engine and tranny. I had a 1 ton dually sprinter, loaded or not I could not get less than 21mpg. I would love so see a youtuber do this swap.
Ya that would be awesome, do those engines have any similarities to the eco diesels?
@@StockyBaldman nothing. A straight 5 turbo diesel. Around 2001 to 06 ish. 5 spd HD automatic
Ok cool, ya that would be really interesting in an old jeep or something
That is very impressive I have a 97 12v with 3.55 gears on 35s going about 75mph I'm at 1900 rpms I'd like to get that a little lower but not bad
Wow those are great rpms, what are your mpgs like?
@@StockyBaldman I would get around 20 it's kinda tired it has over 400k on it
@@michaelsmigelski7123 You know that’s a really good point, I guess my engine being freshly rebuilt might have an effect on this
200/liter when this was recorded... what's the price today, for fun fuel?
I think it’s 1.86. It’s come down a little bit but still ridiculous.
Have modified your trans?
Ya it has a Power Driven Diesel 650 hp kit with a triple disk torque converter
Getter done 🛻
