My DIC is reading an overall average of 11.5mpg's...
2008 6.0, 4 speed trans (4L70E), 3.73 gears, 4x4, 5'9" bed, extended cab, 20" aluminum rims, 35x12.50 Toyo's, Cat-back Magna Flow exhaust 1 into 2 duals out the back, some air intake like K&N, and a Hypertech programmer, 85k miles.

I didn't do any of this stuff, I bought it like this in Jan with just under 76k on it. I haven't did the mpg's on paper, but roughly from fillup to fillup it's about right (fillup with about 20 gallons, went about 220 miles, etc)

The Hypertech re-adjusts for the tire size and corrects the speedometer... I think I'm gonna plug it in and see what it says about the program it's running...
