Right now Im getting roughly 14.8mpg thats 60/40 city/hwy (pen and paper calc.), On just the highway I average around 17-18mpg (again pen and paper calc.). But I also seem to have a very heavy foot these days, I use to be getting right around the 16.1mpg. But whatever, I didn't by the truck for gas mileage.

Airaid CAI and Magnaflow 14"
I get about 15/16 in the city. Just drove to LA from NC and averaged about 17-18 at about 75 mph. While down there I had an oil change, new spark plugs, magnaflow 14" muffler installed. I averaged about 18-19 on the way back.

I get 9-10 mpg in the city because I only live a mile from work and drive it like I stole it. On the freeway though, I pull a consistant 22 mpg bone stock 89 octane except for flowmaster 40 series duals.

22 mpg going how fast? I get that going about 45-55 mph.

Wow, you guys get some killer mpg's! I've only had my truck long enough to be on my fifth tank of gas but I'm averaging 10 in town. Lot of stop and go short trips.

Doesn't look like I'm going to be able to hit the highway with my trailer until the 1st of June. I was hoping I'd be able to cruise along at about 70 and average 10mpg. Doesn't look like thats going to happen.
