    Their gas mileage is 0 because it runs on diesel fuel not gas :p. Your brother probably loves rolling coal so he has it tuned to burn fuel ha a properly tuned diesel will get in the 20s all day on 35s

    That is a stretch. A diesel will get better fuel mileage all day every day, but at a cost. On a new diesel truck, you have to get rid of all the emissions equipment to get that mileage, otherwise it is around 12. But diesels are much more responsivel to mods in terms of mpgs than gas engines. Throw on a straight pipe and you WILL see more mileage.

    Diesel does cost more sadly, it shouldn't, also maintenance costs are higher. I just have a thing for them though, and they last a lot of miles since they are built so much stronger.

    Look up the 2010 Diesel power challenge and look at what the fuel mileage was for the winner.... :O also look up Brian Jelichs 7.3 I grew up with him and I've ridden numerous drag runs with him Austen I'm sure you'll enjoy it lol

    :eek: There are several videos of him at Piedmont dragstrip!

    My house is literally located a mile away from the air, I can hear what happens there. Although it takes about 4 miles to get there since the road to get there loops around.
