City MPG's, my experience 6.7 diesel vs. 6.2 gasser

I know there are lots of questions about fuel mileage. Here is my report on 100% city type driving. My 2014 is now 6 months old with about 6k on the odometer. This truck has only been driven in city/suburban roads. My average speed was 31.6 mph and I never reached a speed greater than 53 mph (except on the original test drive). Some towing involved at 11k pounds. Hand calculation 13.0 MPG's with the dash display telling me I was at 13.6. Added 4 gallons of DEF at 5k.

I'm actually happy with those results, I was figuring it would be around 10 or 11.

My '13 6.2 gasser is averaging 8.3 mpg with similar driving environment. That has been on the highway a few times and the best I could get out of it was 17 mpg.

It's a wash $ wise in my opinion based on fuel costs and such but I do love the diesel power!

Utilized GPS and fleet management for the stats.
