I've never seen more than 13.5 on the truck almost all highway miles. Then I put it in service as a work truck, and the trailer never (almost never) is off the ball, 11.8 mpg's is the best I've had, down hill, the wind behind me......... The K&N filter makes a suckig sound likeI've never heard, almost like the sound my wallet makes when my wife takes out money for clothes !!! Seriosly though, the engine - seems - to be breathing easier....
