    Welcome from South La, Walt!!
    It's the ONLY downside, and honestly, to me, the lack of shop visits and problems make up for the lower mpg!!

    Welcome from CO. I tried to think of a way to put a positive spin on our mpg #s, but drew a blank. Oh well.....

    Welcome from CO! You bought a big engine-in a truck. Cars may get better MPG, but know what we get? Ass. ;)

    All kidding aside- I get around 16 or so on 35" lifted and supercharged.

    Welcome from eastern CO! Mine has 85,000 something miles and gets 17-19 mpg on the highway, but when ya pull a trailer you're not going to drive past many gas stations.
