My buddy has an 03 f 350 6 speed (6.0 psd) and he got about 18 following me. No propane for him though [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/phoney.gif[/img]!

Re: MILEAGE

Wow, that is awesome mileage, propane is nice. What do you get without it? Anyhow, sounds like a solid combo to me. Scotty

Re: MILEAGE

Very nice!!! That's good mileage. I just fuled up for the first time (since motor rebuild) the other day and found that I got 16.3 MPG. Not bad considering half of that was run on three year old fuel. I was hoping to get at least 15, so I'm happy!

Re: MILEAGE

I just got another load of fuel calculated out at 19.7

That is with 4.11 gears...

Imagine what it will get when I fix the fuel leak it has
