in city about 10-12mpg depending on how hard you are on it. stock hp is 300hp and 360lb tq.
get a custom tune and it will wake the 6.0 up, they are severly detuned from the factory.

Most of the 2500 with 6.0s come in a HD package with 410 gears. I put in 342s and it doubled my mileage around town, and gave me 3 more MPG highway.

IMO, all the power you'll ever need, one way or the other. If it doesn't have enough just the way it sits when you buy it, there's plenty more HP to tap if you really need it.

@11MPG factory, if you address the tailgate issue one way or the other, you get @ 3MPG back.

Personally, I just love the ride. I've never had better.
