21mpg is good for a full size truck. if you keeped the tires topped up and everything maintained pretty good and mod it just right you could possibly gain a few more mpg easily. project rustbucket could can get 27mpg but it is also putting down about 500hp

I had a mechanic tell me that for under $1500 I could get 26mpg. He said a new turbo and not sure what else. My emergency at the moment is I need a passenger side knuckle.
