new daily - 2001 Sierra C3

[SMKR]

well i have checked the fuel a few times all on the same pump and has ranged from 15-18.5 hand calculated. the fuel computer was only off by .3.

i had all the fluids changed. put new tires on. did window tint. removed rear block (2.5 inches) and added bilsteins all the way around. cleaned mass air/throttle body. changed air filter. plan to do belts, fuel filter, tune, muffler, and AEM dry performance filter. any other suggestions?

current pic. its filthy (ice/rain/trees) but you would never know it with this color.

You still have that white Z71?

Between work and weather... I'll have the motor out this weekend.

Getting a new headliner, mirrors and electric fans this weekend. I've also upgraded my cluster to a Denali since I needed to rebuild it anyways.

sounds good. if you have any interest in tightening up the susp i fully suggest bilsteins. i am absolutely thrilled with the change.

I'd hand calculate the mileage. Those digital readouts aren't all that accurate in my experience.

Nice truck!

if you reset them every time they are pretty accurate. i have always hand calculated them at random and been with in .1-.2 of the read out. i think the bigger factor to being accurate is using the same pump over and over if you are hand calculating. different pumps shut off at different levels and that would make a big difference hand calculating the mpg.

plus that number was all hwy at 65-70. i do very little in town driving.

LOL. So many people are extremely skeptical of your truck. Sign of a good buy! Jellyness

You may have the only 6.0 that gets 19 mpg in the world. LOL. Those are not known for passing up gas pumps. Nice truck tho, I see shit boxes out there for 10k and up

i was pretty surprised too so i took a pic. its not exactly the same as the 6L in the 3/4 tons that get shit for mpg. looking around some gm forums it seems that it isn't too uncommon for a good maintained 6L denali to get 16-19 mpg. thanks on the truck. i just couldn't wrap my head around a 100k mile truck for 15k even if it was under 5 years old. decided to look older and less miles.
