2012 3500 dually fully deleted with 3.73 gears pulling a 16500lb 5th wheel I get between 8 -12 always run with tow/haul on and cruise set @65. Biggest variable is traffic and terrain.
I’m running a 2012 3500 crew cab with 3.73 gears I get around 12 mpg towing my 16K lbs fifth wheel. Running around town empty combined city/hwy I got 18mpg on my last tank. I rarely go more than 65 mph because of the drop in mpg’s.
Bought my 3500 dually used and it had timbrens on it, was the first thing to come off. Found the ride was way too harsh with them, experienced the same problem with a 3500HD Chevy wrecker that I used to drive.
My daughters 07 2500 has 160k miles, fronts changed 2x rears 1x. 99% stop and go city driving. My 12 3500 has 105k but I got it used without a history so I don’t know if brakes have been done or not.
Found an aftermarket remote start on Amazon for $96 simple install (2 plugs) and works with 2 button key fob. Got the diesel specific one that has delay for the grid heater to do its thing.
