Default During a 65 mile stretch
I got 18.3 MPG !!!!! That is what the trip indicator read and verfied by filling up before and after. I can't wait to put the headers on and try to push 19 MPG.

I could not believe it. That's why I filled up again, just to see if it was true. I kept the speed between 60-65 MPH.

Vader,

What kind of air intake system are you currently using with your new tb?

When I stayed between 80 and 85, I dropped to 15.5. Damn this truck rides awesome at all speeds.

Un-believable... I'd be happy to get 14 (currently 12ish). must be hard to keep the foot out of it though.
