If you want it to last for a while (assuming 200k plus) delete every piece of emissions equipment you can. (if you live in a county that doesn't do emissions testing)
IMO work the engine pretty good for the first 2000 miles. It needs some break in time.
you can't delete emissions on a 2013

....yet :Cheer: op:
oh I agree, but telling the guy to run out and rip everything off isn't really a valid recommendation at the time being
Just a quick update. Truck has 6K miles on it now. Was averaging around 18-19 mpg with the wife driving it around town. On the highway would do 22-23mpg with me behind the wheel.
Last weekend with the gooseneck on for a 300 mile round trip it got 13mpg. That was with empty GN one way and total of about 10K on the trip home.
I'm pretty happy with it so far.
I don't know what I am doing wrong, but the best I have seen with my 12 deleted is around 12 empty, I know it has 35's on it but jebus less MPG than a factory full emission truck?
Eh give it time, someone will figure it out eventually.
OP let this image burn in your mind, these engines have a death wish on them from the factory.
130k mile truck, intake horn is full of soot and carbon build up. Yuck

Fwiw, my 12 deleted gets 13-17 mpg depending on different driving factors
My '11 3500 SRW G56 with a standard H&S Mini Maxx gets (summer blend) 14-16 around town and 18-almost 20 interstate with a 3" leveling kit, 35x12.5x17 toyo M/T and a south bend dual disk. What tire pressure do you guys run?
