2020 GMC 2500 6.6 GASSER leveled with 35's MPG????


Recommended Posts

Just about to order a or buy a 2020 or 2021 crew GMC 2500 GASSER with the 6.6 4x4. Me and Ford diesels are parting ways after about 20 years. I have grown tired of FORD and these new emissions. What kind of MPG can I expect with a leveled 2020 GMC 2500 with 35's? Looking for averages in city/hwy and towing? Also, ANY pics with this configuration would be greatly appreciated. Leaning towards silver but pics can sway me.  Wanting a A/T aggressive tire. No M/T and no highway tire. THANKS for ALL the HELP and ADVICE.

12 mpg in my gasser, skinny 35's, little level kit and shocks. Diesels get bette fuel milage, but still have emission problems, going into limp mode. Like all modern diesels..... And whoops, wrong forum, again, sorry.

I'd take every mpg report with a grain of salt. I logged my mileage in fuelly for dozens of tanks. Mpg was consistently less than the dic said. Most people report their better numbers from the dic and not the actual mileage. For reference I'm stock height ccsb 4x4 and I get 11-11.6 on nearly every tank.

 

Here's a previous thread on fuel efficiency

and you could expect a level and bigger tires to slightly affect it from there. My guess is you would get 10.5-11mpg

I just traveled to a vacation home 190 each way (PA to  Delaware) with a brand new 3500 HD 6.6 gasser. It’s not “broken in and had 100 miles on odometer before the trip.  With judicious throttle I was surprised to get 16.6 MPG round trip on DIC; 15.5 hand calculated. Stock Trailrunner tires on 20” wheels.

2021 High Country, I am seeing 12.5-13.5 mpg
3" Cognito Leveling Kit, Stock 20s, 2" wheel spacers, on a Nitto 35x12.50 Ridge Grappler. 

I am loving this truck, I have had a 2016 & 2016 Duramax, and I am super pumped about my switch back to gas.
