Winter gas is also known to drop MPG. It's that time of year again.

What gears do you have. Im betting you have the 3.55 gears which is what I had and had the same problem. I swapped gears for the 3.92s and don't have the issue anymore. Also I noticed that the trans had to warm up a but before it would fully go into 5th.

I have the 3.55s also. I do find it will not go in OD as easily when cold. When warm no problems.
