Well, my dually was starting to look rough, so it was time to let it go. I picked this up Wednesday night. 2011 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD Duramax. Silver to match my car.

Took it on a trip to Columbus. Even with a 11 mile back up for 1.5 hours, driving around Columbus and back, it averaged 21.9mpg (hand calculated). The city driving I do to work (2.5 miles each way), it is getting 15. Should pick up with more miles (I have 450 on it now) and better fuel in the spring. Might do the DEF/DPF delete with a tune. I hear the 6 speeds mileage sweet spot is 80 to 85mph not 65 to 70 like the old 5 speeds. Too bad I don't speed:D.
 
Nice!

A set of mudders would do it some justice though. :biggrin:

I was wanting to put H2 wheels with 35's on it, but the 2011 trucks have an 8x180 wheel pattern. Wheel selection isn't the greatest. The cheaper wheels look like crap, and the nice ones are $450 to $600 a piece. Next summer I would like to put 285's on it.
