I'm asking to compare my economy to others. I get 12 city if I drive nicely or 10 if I keep up with the flow. I can also get 16-18 highway winds depending. So what do you guys get?

My stroker now has over 200k on it but when I first built it, I was getting 21 on the freeway at 65mph here at 5000ft.

The last highway driven stroker I had got 17 on the highway with 37's.

Seems they get the same or better than stock at cruising, but it drops faster when you get on it, too. Depends how you drive.

My street stroker gets anywhere from 11 - 22 depending on where and how I am driving.

My off road stroker on 33's gets from 8 - 18

Mine gets about 11-12.

Trail only, renix, almost always in 2low, 40" tires.

The engine is more efficient overall. If you are cruising down the highway at 60, it takes a set amount of power. You aren't so deep in the throttle in the stroker.

around town the pumping losses for the bigger engine hurt you and you burn more fuel.
