VF tuning collaboration and BS

Air Traffic Control has weird schedules. Some days I’ll get off work at 10pm and work on tunes or help someone adjust one to their liking. Only to go back to to work at 7am.

It’s fun for me and I like helping people get their truck to how they want it.

Kreg definitely puts in way more hours than most people on this. The man updated KDM from 4.0 to 6.0 in a few days.

 

Railroad has weird schedules too. That’s why I stepped back a while ago from trying to make my own tunes. It would take me a month or so to get something and by that time I was 4 versions behind from everyone else.

 

How much longer til we get an eco tune so we can get 25+ mpg? I know @uploadadventure would like more than 13 mpg lol

 

Well, we shall see if @uploadadventure likes KDMax, he bought it today! Hopefully he gets better than 13.

I think that TermLimits dude is the ECO guy, he seems to be working on getting the best MPGs.

 

I'll accept the challenge for an Eco tune but it's going to require testers, I don't want that s*** on my truck!

 

Yeah Im testing for him I was getting excellent fuel mileage all week I do 100 mi a day. With the miles I had on my trip meter plus miles left till empty was over 400+ mi.

 

My normal refill to empty is 385 and often goes to 416. Maybe it's got something to do with my intake and exhaust??

 

Im just not sure how eco friendly it will be when I'm loaded for my next trip

 

Before I tuned my truck 385 mi was the best I got on stock tune which I didn't know was great . Ummmm there was a few times I had 425 mi till empty but I have not been able to repeat that for a long time now I figured the computer was having a brain fart . Since I've been testing all these new tunes 385 mi still is the most it has shown .

 

Add 8% for uncalibrated speedo.
All depends how you drive...
I'm not in the mountains, but certainly have hills. Both to and from work

 

wth

 

I’ve seen 20-22 in my truck on the interstate during the summer. I gotta think there’s more there (at least for stockish trucks)

 

No shit. I’m lucky to see 230 I corrected for tires.

 

I got over 400 miles one time. And that was a section across Kansas/Oklahoma/Texas where the conditions seem to be just right for good numbers.

 

I drive Kansas going back and forth to TN from CO and my mileage is horrendous heading east and only slightly better heading west. Like 10-12 mpg horrendous.

 

I broke 300 on a tank one time and threw myself a party that weekend.

 

If I got 10-12 out of my Tacoma, I’d no longer have a Tacoma lol I’ll gladly drive my tundra and get 14-15. If I take off the sail I’d probably see 17

 

I get 16-18 in town but when I push it on the interstate my mileage tanks

 

If @uploadadventure would take all that bs off his truck it would be better.

 

I still don’t understand how the “Distance till empty” calculates. It was always at 400 for me until I corrected the speedometer with a hypertech inline. After that it’s always at 385
