    [QUOTE=OldSchoolRecovery] My 2007 GMC 6.0 is a rocket, but burns fuel like a rocket.  Most powerful truck I have had in a long time.  I believe it has to do with the gearing, not sure.
But is has a big gas tank for a reason.  10 mpg most of the time, 12 at best...

Some people  must be easily impressed. My 79 with the 855(14L) cummins got over 12 mpg the other week going to the pull and had power enough that I never needed low range in the  9 speed. 😻👍 I’ll never go back to overworking a pickup to do the job for a real truck.

	If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere. Real pullers don't have speed limits. If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY
