2007 Silverado, 1000 mile round trip, and a DiabloSport inTune.
 |
| The round trip all mapped out. |
Jason Powell started out from
Dover Delaware on a 1000 mile trip to Pensacola Florida with a mission. He
wanted to prove to himself and the world that the price of his inTune was worth
it. He started his trip in his 2007 Chevrolet Silverado without a tune to see
what the resulting fuel economy would be. After his 18 hour trip he pulled into
the driveway and took a picture of the average economy of his truck. The
results were 18.5 mpg and total fuel used at 57.1 gallons.
Jason loaded up the inTune
and installed the Mileage Booster tune for the return trip. The return trip saw
the average fuel economy jump to 19.2 mpg. Jason pointed out that the return
trip was not identical to the trip down. The warmer weather caused Jason to
crank up the AC and he got stuck idling on I 95 for three hours during an
accident.
Assuming the average American
driver clocks 18,000 miles annually, Diablosport’s Mileage Booster tune can
offset the cost of an inTune in just a few years.
