Steve Mutter Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 So unfortunately my beloved 2004 powerstorke F-250 rusted away to nothing. My father in-law called us asking if we wanted to buy his truck, hard to say no its a mint 2012 gmc 1500 with a 5.3 even though I am a die hard Ford guy. Anyways the truck is good but it gets the same fuel economy as my old diesel. I get around 500 kms out of 98 litres which is around 12 mpg using the US gallon, 19.6 litres/100kms for the people in canada. Is there something wrong with my truck or is this what they get, when I am very light on the throttle I get a bit better but not much. I have no chevy background so if anyone has advice I would appreciate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8WA Sman Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 12 MPG sounds low, does it have AFM. Or PM me the Vin Make sure your ethanol % pid is not out of wack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
