new daily - 2001 Sierra C3

[smrr1]

got bored with the truck really quick and decided to sell it. sold it yesterday for $16,750 for all you skeptics!!!!

[smrr1]

dammit, i would give my left nut for it.

If i remember right i sold it for $12,500. It had roughly 35,000 miles and was insanely clean.

I bet I get around 6mpg.

We will see.

You should be able to easily get low teens. Even with aggressive driving. My 4wd averaged 14-16 around town. I miss that truck

[SMKR]

the silver 97 with super low miles? nope. it sold on ebay. its in new jersey now. i have had a few vehicles since it. i do miss it.

at least you are honest! i did kick it up to 80 and watched it drop from 18 to 14 with in a few minutes so the speed is a huge factor with it.

I was wondering with it being a 2001.

Being awd does it have the 4.10s? Nvm I'm reading the link now.

I'm curious because 15-18mpg is a lot more then I'm expecting from mine.

i drive like an old lady to pull that off. if i drove a little more average or aggressive i think it would drop to 13 or so. window sticker shows 14 hwy. it has 373 gears. wish it had 342. the 6L has plenty of low end torque already. i commute around 52 miles round trip and 45 or so are all hwy and i am running 60-65. don't have a lot of stop signs or lights.

So did you ever check the vin and see which 6.0 it had?

U = lq4 6.0
N = lq9 6.0

my truck has never been close twice in a row, but big injectors, big turbo, tuners and weather all play a part in that.

yep. mine usually are driven nicely and are mostly stock. also i drive 85-90% hwy.

i have noticed on most all of my vehicles that have had a computer that if i use the same pump and filling method 100% of the time and reset the computer everytime the computer is usually very close

the overhead in my dodge is sometimes close, and sometimes several off of hand calculations.

The on board computer in my bmw has been dead nuts on every time I checked. I gave up after 5 tanks and just look at it.
