That still makes 16 MPG in US gallons, what is incredible for cold weather driving.
My new to me truck has 194,000 on odometer. Looks, like it was respectably maintained (with the exception of dry differential), so I am not touching it.

I wish I got 20 mpg.... right now I'm getting 14.4, but you can get 15 if you baby it... like that will ever happen

so i got in touch with this guy from diesel care who has some 100hp injectors..he says my milage will stay the same...i tend to agree as i can and i have proved to myself that i can refrain from booting the truck around and get great mpg..my question is when i am pulling on safe tow, hot up a hill and have to give it more fuel, is there a chance the extra fuel might cause some damage internally?...as for getting the 100 hp injectors a guys gotta hot rod around when the camper is not on!..not that old yet!
