A lot depends on engine, transmission, and rear end gears. My friend has a 3500 that I'm thinking of buying, he gets 18 mpg. It's a 1998 3500, 4 door, 4wd, 454, 5 speed manual, 4.10 gears. The 5sp prob makes the biggest difference, and is a hard option to find, especially in a used truck.

There is NO WAY you will ever get 18MPG with a 454. A truck with the 350 gets 10-13, and a truck with a 454 gets 8-11. And the 4.10 gears make the truck even worse on gas. A 2500 series gets better mileage with the 3.73 gears. Fill the gas tank, then reset your odometer. Drive for awhile then fill up again and take the miles accumulated divided by the gallons. That's the real MPG, not what some guy says it is.
