Had my truck about a month now. Getting 14-15 mpg out of a 318, 5 speed, 4x4, w/ 285's. Not bad, since most of the driving is around town and I live in the mountains.

I'm running 32 x 11.50 x 15 BFG AT and they seem to ride fine. No road noise at all which is nice for an all terrain. They are very bad at picking up rocks though. So you you drive much gravel kiss some of your paint good bye.

I have a 2000 318 with a 5 speed. My best MPG is 17.5 I average 16.5 consistently. Keep in mind that the truck has a manual tranny. No aftermarkets products have been added just all factory...

Just checked mine Saturday and out of 237 miles about 100 miles was highway and the rest was some hard city driving with a lot of stop and go traffic and my foot in it a lot (I really hate the city). I averaged 12.1 mpg.
