How much do you lose in the winter. it looks like i lose 3 mpg.
i hope the poll works first one.

 

Worked for me Matt.. but it is normally 2 Mpg City driving, and highway between 1 and 2 depending.

 

Worked here also, same as Pat, about 2 MPG's give or take..

 

i voted no change but im hoping it was my dirty fuel filter that was hurting my mileage last summer. with new filter im currently getting what i was last summer. fingers crossed i can get the 2mpg increase that others are saying. i would be very happy with 17mpg.

 

Winter blend??
I burn #2 year round with a half a bottle of DK on fill ups,am I doing something wrong?
didn't know any different and been doing this for 3 years. I do live in cold climate.

 

Been about 2 mpg for me this winter, went from 16.5/17 to right at 15 pretty steady.

MTDEWX, the winter blend is all teh "extra" anti gel stuff the suppliers put in #2 diesel all winter

 

Thanks for the responses now i dont think there is something wrong with my truck just then blend.

 

I lose about 2 mpg most of the winter but I think this is mainly due to all the time spent idling/warming up. If I fill up while on the road and run that tank, I usually get about the same as I get during the summer (15mpg). It also seems like I get an extra decrease in mpg when I use extra anti-gel.

 

i was thinking the same thing about the antigel...spring is about here so i wont be using it for long...maybe one more tank. When does the winter blend get phased out in the south east?

 

dont know, would like for spring to be here.

 

With far less April Showers. dont want a drought..just not what we've been getting.

 

Yep me too!!

 

Really? In Houston? I hope that was tongue in cheek Costa. haha

I lose about 3 mpg in the winter. Short trips, mostly city driving I am down to about 10-11 this winter.
