6.0 liter bad mpg

Redrider1976 7 May 2005 04:31:27
 I have a 1999 silverado 2500 with the 6.0 liter and im only getting about 9
mpg. Is this normal for this engine or is there something wrong? I have
noticed there is a strong smell of unburned fuel from my exhaust but there
has been no check engine lights come on from something like a bad o2
senser or anything else that is monitered by the computer. If you have any
suggestions please tell.

 The 6.0`s are terrible on mpg.
I have an '04 and I get mostly 12,but If I`m hard on the pedal,I get
maybe 10 max.
How many miles do you have on your truck?
Are you a lead foot?

 I have an 04 GMC 2500HD ext cab shortbed and get about 12.8 around town, 14
with all highway driving unloaded. I don't know about mileage pulling a
load. I am a fairly aggressive driver.

HTH,
Jeremy

 Thanks for the reply and yes I am a little bit of a lead foot but now that
I get such bad mpg I have learned to let off . I have 720000 miles on the
truck now.

 Thanks for the reply and I was a leadfoot but not much of one now with such
bad mpg. My truck has 72000 miles on it.
