only had one oil change in my '11 and not a drop missing! (only 6300 miles as of now)

Here in CA, they are trying to outlaw and make criminals out of all citizens that legally bought and own detachable magazine rifles! The bill was thrown out, but it is still ridiculous that law abiding citizens have to worry about such ridiculous gun bans!

Build and you get what you want and you understand them better when something happens. With the elections and gun laws right now, some parts brands are getting harder and harder to get!

I only wish I was getting close to that mileage. I just got 11.8 mpg on my last tank....maybe a tune would yield better mpg?

To bring the mileage back in, it sure goes down the more you use (let run) the remote start. My last tank netted a whopping 11 mpg! Got 12 in my 06 Z71 w/33's. My old 06' with the 5.3 would bog down and kick down into 2nd when going through the hills at 70-75 mph. Now, I just breeze up them without hesitation at all. Might kick down to 5th once or twice, but that is it. Love it! All of our engines, 5.3-6.2, can haul the 10,500 lbs. The problem is stopping your truck! Making turns! That is when it becomes a scary ordeal that we have to follow specs for. I cannot even get any of those other trucks to get on it when I am around! I did pull a 2011 Charger with just a plain Hemi, he was pissed. I do not think he could drive?? Then got spanked by a Magnum SRT8....oh well... Still considering a tune, 6 mo. old, 2300 miles!

Sorry if I missed it, but what is AFM? "Actually, they do not get much worse mileage than your AFMless 5.3 powerplant, because you have a 4 speed transmission and 6.2 engines come with a 6 speed"
