New Flash

Do any of you know when / if a new flash is coming out for the 6.0? Have a build date of May 04 and wondered if it could use an existing, current reflash which is better or if one is coming out.

Your dealership does have a current one and a new one for your.... year of truck.
Why do you ask.

I was thinking that maybe it could help the truck out. When I bought it, it was getting 21 mpg on the hwy, and about 15 to 16 mpg around town. Now, its getting like 17 hwy and 13 to 14 city. I put a 4" cat back on w/ a aeroturbine muffler hoping to help... not much change. Don't want to spend the money for a diablo or equal since I don't tow much and thought maybe a new flash would get it back to where it was. Truck now has about 8k miles.

reflash recommended???

Would the reflash be recommended or just stick with what I have?

I perform my own maintenance, so it has not been back to the dealer since I bought it.
