Alright, I just got a "new" work truck, 01 six speed. Bought the truck with a bad pump, so the boss had another pump that was good but its an s.o. pump. Truck runs great so far. But as far as a programmer or tuning or whatever goes, do I still look for tuners for an 01? I hot shot with this truck so I'm running about 5-600 miles a day and am trying to get some more fuel mileage out of it. Any help?
 
Ok, thanks a lot. Any suggestions on an economy box? Mileage max any good? From edge
 
Get an edge comp. I tow with mine on level 1 an get about 13 mpg pulling a 7-8000 pound load. I don't know how much u weigh out on ur loads but that's jus a quick little piece of advice. Empty I get over 20mpg
 
Ok, I'll try that, my loads vary from an easy thousand pounds to my biggest being about 18,900 lbs. I'm averaging eleven with about 5-7000 pounds. That was on a 300 mile trip so I guess I'm not doing too horrible.
 
im not sure on towing but with just my smarty revo that i had, i was pullin 23 mpg at 70mph- 20mpg @ 80. hand calculated twice, both were 600 miles round trips. numbers on the box were, CaTcher #7, timing 4, torque 6, duration 1.
 
I have the edge j/a and empty I get 18 mpg on level 1 "economy". On level 5 "extreme" I get 23+. Made me laugh. Food for thought.
 
I get close to 500 miles a tank on level one on my quad adr driving relatively sane without a load, think that equals about 19 mpg ...

If you aren't looking for a huge increase in power you might want to try out an Edge EZ. I had one on my 01 and empty I got 23mpg on the highway and 19 pulling an empty 2500lb car trailer, both hand calculated.
