New Diesel mileage Ford, Ram and Chevy

[cohoho]

Hi Guys, really starting to look at a new Diesel, I only want to know what you get on your new 2013-14 Chevy, Ram or Ford, without lift, without chip, etc..  Stock as it gets mileage.  Can some of you share actual mileage, as throwing the coin in the air here lately and thinking of trading in my Chevy Duramax at 250,000 for a new truck.  Horrible ideal probably, but want to here what your actually getting.  I know I probably opened myself up to the guys trying to push an eco line Ford or a Toyota, but only want Diesel..  Thanks...

2013 Duramax, 13, 000 miles, 15.2 and getting better.

'13 F350 SRW crewcab longbed, 4x4, factory 20"wheels, 2500 miles 16.8 mpg combined, 18.9 highway..... breaking in nicely.

'13 f350 srw crew cab long bed, 4x4 all factory on 18" rims. I get 13 mpg, of course I tend to drive shall we say aggressively    this is just using the computer on the truck, I have gone on some long trips and got around 18ish... Really would like to know if it's my truck or the way I drive, but I get 13 hauling/towing which I do near daily, or unloaded. While I read all these guys getting 18-22mpg with these trucks!!!! But who cares, the best trucks on the market if you need to do work and rely on them. And the power they have isn't bad either....

Regards,
H&F

I know you only want the #'s for 2013 +  but my 2012 F 350 crew cab long box on factory 20's gets 18.9 hi way and 15-16 city ( according to the truck ).

Thanks for the information, seeing what kind of deal Dave Smith can get for me, were almost there, but they low balled me on trade in value, so at round two today when the manager comes in.   Leaning towards Ram Mega cab, great deals on some 2013's, but I do not want a dually..  Not a loyal guy to any specific brand or type.  Just need a crew cab with diesel..

I use fuelly for all my vehicles, pretty cool (and scary) to see how much you spend in a year, and to log all the fuel ups.

kinda makes you wonder about all of the grandiose claims for mileage though huh?

[JohnVH]

it humbles the people that think that digital readout is correct, haha!

But there are still a lot of people that don't check their MPH on a gps to see if its right, and the others that cant do math.

The digital readout on my '07 Tahoe and my '11 2500HD are both very close. I've hand calculated mileage vs the readout a bunch and the readout and hand calculated are always with a tenth of a mpg or so.

The lie o meter on my '07 Ram was optimistic by 3-4 mpg all the time.

As far as mileage,my '11 LML Duramax is the same as whats in the 13-14s.

On a straight highway run unloaded 20mpg is routine. I've seen as high as 22.

Towing my brothers 19' North River Scout to Rufus Woods and back I get about 14

Towing my 26' Duckworth or my 33' fifth wheel I get between 10-11

[JohnVH]

Nice, Ive never had a meter that's right.

had an '05 duralemon, don't remember how far it was off now.

99 cummins was 5-7 high, empty highway 22mpg, 15mpg empty city, towing a heavy 26' travel trailer, 14mpg

05 cummins shows 4 high, empty 16.5 city, not sure on the rest yet.

'13 Duramax LB CC, tires are stock size but a more aggressive mud pattern. 9200 miles

Towing our 31' toyhauler 9500 lbs 10mpg

Highway short trips 30 miles or less 16mpg.

Saturday I had to run to Walla Walla to pick up my wife. 80 miles each way, fueled up when I left, fueled up when I got home. 18.9mpg.

All hand calculated, my Work Truck doesn't have a DIC.

2012 F450 / 4:30 rear end. Average 17.8-18.9 on the highway empty. Towing my boat (38,000lbs) I get 10-11. Both my sons have F350's, 1 is a 2013 the other 2014 . They both get between 22-24 on the highway. More power even at high speeds than anyone would ever need. I go up the hill from cresent lake and accelerate all the way to the top. Great trucks.
