Engine swap most likely you will end up with similar mileage or better before mods, depending on mods maybe even after.

I was just curious how much my mpg could tank depending on the engine swap and what upgrades. I have seen some claiming 9mpg average not towing with a mild 6.2. Doesn’t sound right though so I created this thread to see what others are getting based on mods
I imagine driving habits impact a trucks average MPG more than they would in a lighter car.
