BlackSnapon and Bowtiehtr,
What's the highest mileage 6.0 either of you have physically seen and how was it doing?

I may not be one of the techs you want, but I hand calculated a 20.7MPG run from my house here to St. Charles. I drove quite slow. YES, I CAN do that when I really, really want to. On the interstate I ran at 65 indicated and I didn't use the cruise, I just held a constant RPM on the hills and let the speed suffer a bit. It made it up on the down hills anyway.

Todd, I appreciate your answer, but I wasn't meaning MPG. I meant miles on the 6.0... With that said, 20.7, damn that's good MPG...YelloThumbUp

Ah, sorry, mis-read. Well, in that case, mine will NOT be the one you're looking for cause it usually gets closer to 10MPG and seems to have ALOT of smoke coming out the back for some reason. :D
