That don't make no sense. I know my mileage sucks with 33s and 3.55 gears, but how was it better with 35's?

 

The only way that would be true is if most of his driving was on flat land and he rarely goes over say 45mph.... then its possible...but in most conditions the truck wouldnt have enough power to sustain speed without constantly downshifting and forget ever using overdrive... 33's would definatly get BETTER all around mpg with 3.55 gears and any magnum drivetrain than 35" tires...
hell I get 12-13 mpg...with 4.56 gears and 35" tires so someones math doesnt add up.. for one without changing the speed gear in the diff he odometer and speed gauge is going to be off..

 

I pretty much get 13 MPG no matter what I am doing. I bought a POS car for the work commute to save. I was spending around $400 a month in gas.

 

I saw 13.4mpg on my last 300 mile trip, bout 50% country roads/interstate, the other 50% city/slow speed zones.

My average is low because I don't always fill up for weekend stuff which screw's with the average..

 

I get about 14 to 16 mpg just around town and closer to 18 when it's all highway driving.

i got 15.2 last weekend in a nice leisurely 55 mph drive down to deer camp and back. 75 miles down with a big load of green wood and 75 miles back hauling nothing but 2 left over beers and no ice.

 

Left over beer? Must have been a bad weekend..lol

 

I average around 13-14 mpg with 35s and 4.56 gears. 8 mpg if I'm playin around :P

 

Just filled it up again for the second time in the month and a half I've owned her...13.8 mpg. Probably 50-50 city/highway.

 

Just got through the first tank after fitting the K&N CAI kit... initially it looks like at least 1-1½ MPG improvement... I'll report back after a few tanks, as this week has been bad traffic, and I've been enjoying the extra pep in her step
