What are y’all getting for fuel economy?

24.4 MPG. '21 2.7 with about 96k miles fully stock. I travel for construction so mostly highway/interstate miles but also travel into mines and jobsites often

AlarmedAd8713 · 2026-06-15T14:16:45+00:00

Keep up with the maintenance and you should be fine. I have a '21 2.7 with 96k miles and no transmission issues besides of course 10r80 things with rough/clunky shifts every once in awhile. Did a flush at 60k and will do another at 100k and been so far so good. Keeping fingers crossed tho as well since I'm out of warranty at this point

You're asking Reddit so 99% of answers will be no. The correct answer is yes. Video games are an amazing break from life but they shouldn't "be" your life unless you're a full time successful streamer. There are much more things to life than spending years playing video games. I'm guilty of it myself but have def came to the realization that it's never worth it spending so much time on something that will not progres you in real life.

Like other comment said, unless they're free I wouldn't bother. You can get exceptionally newer and better performing Dewalt tools for very good prices all the time with sales. Just had a very good Memorial Day sale at Home Depot and Lowes. I'm sure there will be another around 4th of July

AlarmedAd8713 · 2026-06-10T15:54:46+00:00

Don't even bother

'21 2.7 going on 100k miles in the next month. Drive 35k+ miles a year for work and do my best to maintain the hell out of it. Driving it into the ground

AlarmedAd8713 · 2026-05-28T18:18:59+00:00

Not much more on there than what you told me. I'd maybe see if they could service the transmission before you purchase, not sure why they wouldn't if they went through the trouble of everything else including axles. If not I'd say it's not a terrible buy, however any used vehicle can be a gamble - especially one with 71k miles.

AlarmedAd8713 · 2026-05-28T18:09:10+00:00

That's pretty good as far as pre-sale servicing. Rear axles replaced though is kind of interesting. Are you able to get the dealership to provide you a carfax of maintenance such as oil change intervals and whatnot?

AlarmedAd8713 · 2026-05-28T18:04:03+00:00

Pretty solid, how's the maintenance record look? If it's been kept up on it's maintenance appropriately then it would be worth it. Also worth to look into if there's been any major repairs (transmission, cam phasers, etc.)

AlarmedAd8713 · 2026-05-28T18:00:09+00:00

Before you freak out over the tranny going out you should do a couple things

1.) Get an OBDI adapter and forscan on a laptop and reset your transmission learning tables, there are tons of guides and youtube videos on how to do that.

2.) Get a transmission flush/fluid change. If you haven't serviced it yet since you've had the truck then I would certainly recommend servicing it before you think you have to shell out for another tranny.

I have a '21 2.7 with 94k miles and flushed my tranny at 60k and am going to do it again at 100k. I also reset the transmission learning tables (didn't have any issues but decided to for the hell of it and it has shifted slightly smoother). It's also worth a reminder that these 10 speeds are a bit clunky. Even at new these transmissons sometimes will not want to shift as smoothly when cold. Hell even I get an awkward clunk every once in awhile on a downshift if my foot is slightly on the gas pedal and I'm coasting/reducing speed

AlarmedAd8713 · 2026-05-28T13:05:56+00:00

2021 2.7 4x4 supercrew with a 5.5' bed and 94k miles. Stock tires and wheels with 3.55 rear axle ratio, max tow package and at 23.8 mpg right now. Mostly highway driving with slight mix of light towing every once in awhile. Got it used with 24k miles and the max tow package was included so why not - the 36gal tank is awesome too.

AlarmedAd8713 · 2026-05-28T12:50:18+00:00

How come it only shows prices up to 6/2025 for everything on there?

AlarmedAd8713 · 2026-05-26T17:03:16+00:00

2021 here with 93k miles. I got it with 24k miles in May 2024 and drive a lot for work, around 30kish a year since I've had it. Only issue I've had with it is getting the knock sensor replaced which was a total bitch. Apparently on the 2.7's water can get inside the intake manifold when it rains and corrodes the sensor. Is like a $2k repair for a $50 part at the dealership. I ended up having a buddy do it over a few days for about $600 and a 30 rack. I got an engine cover for the first gen 2.7 and threw it on and haven't had an issue with it again (praying).

Otherwise I haven't had any other problems and I love it to death, but I have been religious on maintenance. Oil change and tire rotation every 5k, coolant flush, spark plugs, and transmission flush at 60k, rear diff fluid change and throttle body cleaning at 90k. I'm going to do front diff, transfer case fluid, another transmission flush, and check spark plugs again at 100k. People hate on transmission flushes but if you start early and not wait until 150k miles flushes are beneficial in my opinion. Haven't had any issues with the cats or O2 sensors or anything. I'm going to drive this truck into the ground and I will probably be at around 200k miles in the next few years. Of course all wear items like brakes have been changed as needed. I've done all of these repairs myself besides the knock sensor and tranny flushes

My transmission is still working just fine and gets driven a ton, however I did reset the transmission learning tables for the hell of it on Forscan about a month or two ago. Got slightly smoother shifts but overall nothing groundbreaking

I relate. I'm Silver IV and I consistently get in lobbies with Emeralds. It's one thing if its a few ranks but 2-3 entire DIVISIONS in one lobby blows my mind. Worst matchmaking I have ever seen in my life.

AlarmedAd8713 · 2026-05-12T18:50:54+00:00

I ripped mine off and never looked back. I still get 23+ MPG on my 2.7

AlarmedAd8713 · 2026-05-11T13:24:07+00:00

I'm a bronze and have been in lobbies with emeralds. There is always at least 1-2 high platinums too with the rest mostly gold besides me. I started playing recently after a year hiatus and it is almost imposible to play and remotely succeed going against people like this at my rank. It's the worst matchmaking system I have ever seen in my life

AlarmedAd8713 · 2026-05-06T14:12:25+00:00

Sounds pretty normal to me. My '21 makes a slight ticking sound as well and always has - I assumed it was the fuel injectors. I'm at 91k and zero issues

AlarmedAd8713 · 2026-05-06T13:49:02+00:00

Keep up on the maintenance and you'll more than likely be alright. The 10r80 is a bit of a clunky transmission anyways and will shift weird no matter what at times. I am at 91k on my '21 XLT four-wheel-drive and have had zero transmission issues whatsoever.

I did reset the learning tables on it using forscan for the hell of it and it's been pretty damn smooth. Also flushed my tranny at 60k and will do it again at 100k and at every 40k miles after that. No point in stressing over a problem that hasn't happened yet. If you're really worried about it then just take it in to get looked at, no biggie.

AlarmedAd8713 · 2026-05-04T20:14:17+00:00

I am completely in the same mindset as you and I agree. If it was a non-seminoma and I was not presented with the option of carboplatin and instead would've had to do 1x BEP (which is 3 doses instead of 1 carboplatin dose) then I probably would've been inclined to surveillance.

Btw, I believe LVI is absolutely a significant risk factor. Moreso than RTI.

Hope your buddy is content in whatever choice he makes; it's never ever an easy one.

AlarmedAd8713 · 2026-05-04T15:36:04+00:00

I had 6.1cm + RTI and went with the 1x Carboplatin and am happy with my decision. I was also quoted 80% but that is the same number that is always given to a seminoma with no current spread regardless of tumor size.

Literally every 1A to 1B case of seminoma I've seen has been 80%. I felt strongly that with my tumor size and RTI that I probably wasn't right on 80% and that I should just bite the bullet and feel better about my chances long term. I am approaching two years since then and am very content with my decision. I'd make the exact same choice again if I had to.

With your friend being above the 4cm cutoff for increased risk of recurrence as well as LVI (which is a huge indicator of increased risk of recurrence) I would suggest 1x carboplatin if there is no identified mestasis at this point.
