OK, first, try using more descriptive thread titles. Yours was lame. Second, yes, there is a manifold vacuum pressure sensor on the trucks, but not a barometric pressure sensor. '97 and up EFI systems can correct for altitude up to about 7k feet. Are you higher than that? Lastly, please fill out your profile info so we don't have to guess about what vehicle you have.
I dont live that high, truck has air intake, straight piped, replaced map sens.,
plugs, wires, anymore suggestions? maybe I should look into the plenum gasket? Im getting 10 miles per gallon, I would expect a little better than that.

Plenum gasket is notorious on these V8s. Is gas mileage your only issue? These trucks are not known for good gas mileage. Any other symptoms? What engine do you have? What year truck? You have to help yourself, too.
