The bottom line is he can mod that thing, pour hundreds of dollars into it with "efi upgrades" and "tunes" and aerocaps and what not, the reality is it's a large thirsty beast and he ain't likely to break 20 mpg at all, and if by some small miracle he does, it will be juuuuuust barely.
Right If I can get around 20 or even 18mpg Ill be using alot less gas than at 11. Im not going to touch the engine or computer though.
