Actual MPG numbers
Assuming one could get over the joys of WOT in a tank or two.... What actual MPG increase could you count on from that point forward? 1? 1.5? 2? I know it will be impossible for you to give an exact number for all the given variables, but you have to have a real world number in mind soemwhere.
Thanks...

Apex, Thanks for the info. FWIW, your mileage sux. LOL.... I drive mainly hwy here in Houston area, and get a consistent 13.4 to 15.6. Depends on my foot of course. I try to use the cruise to keep stupid from coming out, but you know how good that does with these trucks. Would it be safe to say I could see an average of 1mpg gain just by running the 87 tune? Like I said, I have little to no mods, and don't plan for any other than maybe the Fram Airhog filter beyond the muffler swap I have already done.

Re: Actual MPG numbers
My mileage sucks due to a few things. I have straight piped the exhaust from the last o2 sensor back. I have 35's, aftermarket/custom rear end, added close to 100lbs in tubing for the bumpers & bed cage. But even before all the mods best I ever got was 11.4 stock. I should mention it is a 4WD too.
 Depending how you drive, but yea 1mpg should be easy. |

Re: Actual MPG numbers
Heh, the first time I saw the pic I literally LOLed. I like both cats(almost got a bobcat) and dogs(prefer the big kind), but I really enjoy the cat pictures all over the internet.
I am still getting around 13.5 city and I thought it is pretty good.

Re: Actual MPG numbers
Well my CC LE is stock w/ about 2300 miles on the ODO. My last fill up was at 15.98 MPG. I drive 10 miles to work w/ about 2 of those miles on the interestate and tons of traffic lights in between. I buy my gas at Costco which is 100% gas and no ethonol at all...yet. Any other driving I do is mainly around town so there aren't any opportunities to get really good mileage.

Looking at your worst and best, its about 2 more mpg, with a 29 gallon tank, thats 58 more miles to a tankful. 58 miles, thats a savings of 4 gallons per tankful when getting 14.5 mpg. 4 gallons @ $3.60 per gallon is $14.40, not bad for just reseting the computer. |
