I had an 01 F-250 CC 4x4 that had never achived 17 MPG, well almost never. I finally reached the 19 MPG number @ 27k and a lot of "new" programing via~chip. Then I sold the dang thing and got this Bute-of-a-truck! I have no "mods" to the GMC as of 22k. I used Delo for 10k(4) then rotella for 8k(4) and now I'm on Delvac-1(2). I don't know if 10 oil changes would be too many for break-in? However, my fuel milage is now starting to climb? There have been many posts of trucks having 15 to 20 MPG right out of the box, not mine. :confused: Is it possible that changing the oil so much could have an effect on break-in? I ask this question because I'm selling my 02' and getting an 03' in about 3 or 4 weeks, whenever it comes in. I would like to break my new truck in correctly.
