Everyone brags about there diesel getting awsome mileage What does your get towing and not towing? Does it make a big difference in the winter months or not (meaning worse mileage)?
Well winter months go down because they put anti-gelling stuff in the diesel and that doesn't help the mileage.

I have heard they always do better and my friends do get better MPG. I have a buddy with a 03' PSD and bigger turbo and other goodies getting 18ish but he is in the pedal most of the time. Also, a buddy with a 12V and it gets around 24ish but drives like a Gma.
