'04 Chevy 2500 gas mileage

[slims]

A guy my brother is working for has this truck and he's getting 12mpg. The guy is wanting me to put an intake and whatever else I think will help it. The guy will pay me or he offered for me to fish his stocked catfish pond whenever I want. What do you guys think? Dosnt this truck have the 6.0? How many mpg should this thing get?

It has 4.11 gears and a 6.0 I don't know what else you can do to get better. The 06 I drove around at work got that, granted it had a full steel flat bed with sides on it but it still got 10-11 at best.

A tune might be the best bang for the buck...

Tune, exhaust and intake will be about the only thing... unless he wants to start stripping the truck of weight.... lol.

If he's lucky, he can get 13-14 at MOST in that truck. A 6.0 is a thirsty bitch.

I was thinkin a tune up. Fluids, plugs ect. Especially if I can get some fish or a lil cash out of it.

I think the "tune" there talking about is a Black Bear tune.

The only thing that will help the mpg's on that truck is a Prius in the bed.
