Jb, you have any trouble out of the front end? im replacing all the ball joints up front today on mine. this makes $4100 in two weeks.

Fuel milage is great, no drivetrain issues. but GD im tired of this shit. balljoints, ac acuators, new dash, front hub assemblies both sides. I need someting with a warranty.

new gatortail getting farther and farther away.

AK, u looking for a Dmax? what kinda GT you got?

The wheel fell off the front of my ole mans going down the interstate!!!

Kind of along the subject, Nissan is about to put out a new Titan with a V-8 Cummins...

Loud ass junk

My GMC has 6 year 100k mile unlimited bumper to bumper and unlimited powertrain

Pod, what make of truck is that you took a pic of the dash?

^^ yup. That's just the econ screen. It's got bout 14 different screens and all the 6 surrounding info readings (temp, compass, time, mpg, and both electric gauges on the side) are all programmable ta whatever ya want em ta show.

There's the rest the dash.

^tapatalkin from Cabelas, this guy lol!

2012 ecoboost

my work truck f-250 6.2 4x4 gets 10-13 mixed driving... love the power

as far as a gm towing 11,500lbs.... i doubt it unless they really did some work to the 2014s...

4 leaf springs on the rear... my ass

Yep,,,this can be argued till yall blue in the face. Simple fact is,,,whatever the EPA rating sais it is,,,thats gonna be damn close!!! They would be sued if not...So Bigrich post mean nothing,,,i can make mine show about 4mpg all the way up to 25mpg...

I guess big rich is saying that the ecoboost is not too fuel efficient. I totally agree with him. Its not what they claim. I think he needs to tell us what the mpg of his jeep gets . I don't know what he gets but I know its probably worse than the EB. Especially since the jeep weighs half of what a F150 weighs and has quite abit less HP and Trq.

My jeep show 15.2 and is not calibrated for 35's

My buddies is and with a cold air intake and 35's it shows 19. Something
Both 2012 jeep rubicons with 35's

Depends on what you classify fuel efficient...

It takes so much gas to make so much H.P. The ecoboost's downfall is that the power it makes make you always want to be in the accellerator. You dont realize it, but this engine at 2000rpm will make pretty much full power. So you dont notice it cause you are used to an engine dropping gears and screaming up in RPM. The full power accross a longer/broader rpm rang requires more fuel.

Think of it this way,,,,,5yrs ago most 4x4 trucks averaged 14-15mpg. So averaging 17 aint that bad. And doing so with twice the power is a plus.

I will admit,,,compared to the hemi, the ecoboost is less forgiving in the MPG dept. You could get on the hemi a few times and not really notice any MPG diff. Do that with the eco and it drops faster...

Im going buy a dixie....im out:lol:

Just showing what my buddies is getting who knows last time he reset it just an all time average... And then u say I can make mine show whatever that is correct we all can just showing what his is getting

I just said heck with a 40k + truck note and got a 07 used dmax with 48000 miles for $23k

It's a damn truck. If u worried about fuel economy go buy a Prius. If u drive the Eco boost like a normal human prime driving age, it's gonna get shitty mileage. Put a 85 year old man in it with his hazards on doing 35 in a 55 and its gonna get 25 MPG.

This was going to houston. I was on the clock so no hurry. I was driving between 65 and 70 amd was averaging 23.8. And my trucks 4x4 with the lower gears.

3.55's

I'd like ta see the actual paper calculation fer that, especially since that pic was taken more towards the beginning of the tank. Vehicles calculate high fer the first half ah the tank fer whatever reason. Most Fords figure high on their EVIC's. 3.55's now a days are mid gears fer the 1500 trucks. 3.93's are typically the lowest ya see unless someone special orders lower. My 1500 came with 3.21 which was close ta the highest available. I don't tow more than my duck boat anyway and with 400hp em gears are just fine.


BTW, check yer tires.

well......as if the last three weeks havent cost me, today i replaced the transfer case module on the dmax.

for the mechanics.....when so you pull the plug on fixing shit and buy new? 04 dmax 4x4 with 225K miles?? i got $4800 in it in the last three weeks. i feel like this truck is fixing to start paying me back.

That's why u have to be carefull when listening to these fools recommending buying a "used Duramax for 20g's" etc etc...

Those trucks can haunt you for way more then u pay for new! A coworker of mine has 250k+ on his! Most say wow!!! That's awesome! But 2 Alison rebuilds and 1 set of injectors and 2 front end rebuilds! He don't think it was such a good idea keeping it! You would have to save a shit load of money to convince me it's worth buying it used!

Mine only has 47000 miles on it I got along way before ill be at 250k.

There ain't nothing wrong with the durmamx, they are the strongest runnnig diesels produced today.
