I have some pretty good experience with getting mileage in diesel trucks. I got 30.94mpg on one tank from Vegas to Los Angeles in my 97 Dodge....

and I routinley get mid-20s in my 89 on the freeway without really trying. A programmer that bumps timing REALLY will help in these trucks....also don't forget to run skinny tires at 80psi
