I'd LOVE to get that mileage with my 6.2. My blended average is about 11.
It's running really good. Rebuilt the front end, and bought a ZF6 assembly to swap in when the 4R100 takes a dump (which hasn't been yet! ). Installed a gooseneck and a transfer tank to haul with. But is mainly used as a back up truck now. Currently sits up in Northern AZ where I start it every few months when I get time to get back.

Something about these v8 diesels that are addicting. I6 cummins eh', but the V8's are nice.
