What is a custom FICM program? Maybe I should know but I cant place it right now.

FICM=Fuel Injector Controller

The 6.0's really benefit from a custom program:

(Innovative Diesel Performance can reflash your FICM for more power, throttle response, and mileage. Our custom FICM tune will bring back the original mileage of your reflashed truck, in most cases even more.

We have 3 different power level's available. Mild, Moderate, and Race.

Mild is great for a stock injector truck, with no plans for aftermarket injectors.

Moderate is the choice for 175-255cc injectors. It works fine on a stock injector truck that may ugprade to aftermarket injectors later.)

I'm thinking moderate, in case I ever do upgrade injectors...

Good morning Dave.
I got 18.5 going down to Pipestone and back. When we went to get the camper then I checked it also and I got about 11 with some wind I was bucking. So I was happy with all that. I will get a better check of mileage pulling the camper this weekend when we go to Clearwater.

Cool. Nothing wrong with those numbers

18.5 is the best I have seen. That was averaging 70 mph if I recall. Push it over that and it drops to about 15.5. That is unloaded of course.

It's crazy the mileage I am getting then. From Troy's back to home I only used maybe 6 gallons. Not even 1/4 tank. At that rate I am at about 20 MPG...
