It costs me $45(ish) a fillup with 93, and I romp the **** outta mine a lot. So I get about 15 mpg.

I get 17mpg at best if I drive like a grandma and that's with exhaust. I have 265/75/16 Nitto Terr Grapplers with a 2 inch lift front and rear and I still rub at full lock. And as far as a warranty if it's a Chrysler warranty from what I'm hearing those are no longer honored at dealerships. When I first got the truck last year, when the gas prices were really high it was costing just under $100 to fill up in Arizona.

Damn I wonder why I didn't rub at all when I had no lift, but alot of people do. What are you guys rubbing exactly? I cleared my 265/75s fine with no lift and now with my 2" kit its no problem at all. I am starting to wonder if my tires ran smaller then others. They don't look like it though. I think it has to do with my wheels.

I am getting roughly 18-22, depends on my foot too Now lately I have been rough on it and I am scoring around 16-17 in town but its fun, the windows are down, I can hear the intake sucking, the roar of the exhaust and the echo through the streets

Where did you get this information from? Legally they have to honor the factory warranty.
