mbdougl is off the scale
Default Amazing

At 90K miles i needed new hubs and airbags of course. Still running strong!
Parts are taking longer to get though, I had to wait an extra day to have the bags shipped from out of state

Totally stock except for the Rockstars, just reset your mileage counter and stay on flat ground while drafting a big vehicle and you can avg 16mpg on the highway

Avg MPG 16 MPG? That must be downhill with the wind at your back or is this a Duramax conversion?

well he did say he reset his milage counter...

i can get 50 mpg if i did that too... doesnt mean crap..

i want to yell BS at anyone who says they are getting this kind of crazy mpg...

mark down your milage and fill your tank up.. get back to us afterwards with your end milage when your tank is empty.

if someone is doing ALOT of HW driving, and i mean alot.. then i would think thier mpg will be higher than most.. but i think anything over 14 mpg is BS.

someone is lying to you.. either its the DIC or yourself..

be hey, in the end.. its your money, iccl how you spend it.

right now, with about 700 miles on new gears, im averaging about 9.8 mpg with the mods in my sig. prior to the regear, i was at a solid 8.8 mpg.

i am heavy on the the gas when i drive, so yes, i could change my driving habit and improve it. bone stock when i bought my H2, it was at 11mpg

12.8 is respectable, and i woudl say very believable.. more so with a 6 spd tranny than the 4 spd one...

the biggest culprit is driving hablits...
if you have a lead foot, your MPG is going to suck. if your a conservative drive, it will obviously be better than most.

but there is only a certian amount that the H2 is going to get mpg..

even if you are going down hill coasting all the time... well at some point you have to go uphill too...

i think there was a article here or maybe i read it somewhere else about extreme driving habits.. like in popping it in nuetral when going down hills and such, and drafting other vehicles....

i could see if you drove a H2 that would be understandable...crazy... but understandable... but it is a major change in driving habits from what i rememeber reading..

i swear, when this motor finally craps out and i do a engine swap... or if i can find a 6sp cheap, im switching over...

bone stock, the 6spd is rated for 600 HP, but i think i would still upgrade it some more..

the t-case... i have no idea... not sure what its rated for....
