Just for shits and grins I dropped in behind a big rig on the highway yesterday and reset the dic.... leveled out around 17.8 running 70mph. I've only got about 2800 miles on the truck, and so far thats the best the dic has ever displayed.

Last trip, 70mph and 20.2mpg calculated. DIC read 21.3(inaccurate). That is running stock tires/wheels.

I have a 3500 2008 Crew cab Dually with 7,000 miles. I am getting around 9 MPG towing a 10,000 lbs trailer. Empty in town I am getting about 12 mpg and empty on the road around 15 MPG.

I installed a Hypertech chip and a Banks intake system. After 3 tanks of gas, I did not experiense much gain in MPG, maybe at best one to one and a half MPG.

Any suggestions?

If he wants to keep DPF the hypertech will do as good as any, because it produces no soot.

The rest of the banks get wont help, the exhaust does nothing. He also hasn't reach break in period yet. I would run hypertech on III and see how that treats your mileage.

It wont get him atleast 4, but he will easyily gain 2-4 depending driving style. And no matter what he does with the dpf intact wont help.
