Maximum Effort
Tremor Fan
I used to drive a super duty v-10 dually flat bed, 60 miles each way, 5-6 days a week. I was able to up my fuel economy by 2-3 mpg to 13mpg. A friend (I would affectionately call an old timer) told me “push on the go pedal and the woh pedal like there is an egg between your boot and the pedal”. That and I used cruise control anywhere I could and dropped 4 mph off my highway speed. I think adding a free flowing air intake, tires at door recommended pressure and adding non-tremor air dam would all help too. I would also keep from adding anything that changes the air flow over the truck.Other than an occasional K&N filter change I’ve always left my trucks stock. I’ve also only had F150’s.
Any ideas on how to improve gas mileage on the 7.3? I know it’s a super duty and you don’t buy them for the gas efficiency. I’m just looking for a few suggestions that may allow me to squeeze out a couple more MPG’s (other than driving in ECO below 65mph!)
