Yeah, but I'm worried about my warranty.



That's understandable. Ive heard of guys reinstalling the DPF and removing the tuner. Supposedly there will be no trace on the computer that anything was ever changed.

I get between 350 and 400 on a tank, but I have like a 23 gallon tank


I would be jumping for joy. I am lucky to get 250 out of a 26 gallon tank. I had to add a 51 gallon gravity feed tank to give me any kind of range. Taking on 70 gallons of diesel it feels like you are fueling a yacht

ETA: As soon as my warranty is up that DPF is coming off and a tuner is getting installed.

Gonna need to hear some numbers to see how accurate these numbers are. Exactly how many dicks have you checked?

Buddy's trucks are a little older. Maybe they have improved. Brother sold his because of the shitty gas mileage, but it was a 2001.
