Thats not true. I see people all the time that get 2-3 mpg better on a good tune compared to stock. It has to do with timing. One of the effects of advanced timing is an increase in MPG, and many tuners/modules/etc. feature advanced timing on their tunes. You can do it on you 12v, but its a little more complicated than pushing a button

Really no matter what you drive, and what kind of tuning you have, driving habits will have a major effect on your mileage. Bu they way you have your truck setup is also a major factor.

Im no powerstroke guy but at work the n/a 7.3's and 6.9's wouldnt start unless we use the glow plugs....and thats even in the 40's an 50's during the spring. Although we also beat the **** outa them too and they certainly dont get the greatest maintenance so I'm sure theres something wrong.

the old 7.3 and 6.9 were IDI motors. There aint an IDI motor out there that will start at less than 130 degrees without the glowplugs or ether.... Or LOOOOTTTTSSSSSS of cranking. LOL
