I traveled from Dresser WI, To Great Falls MT. (have a job there). On one full tank of fuel I was able to run the hole time at 2,000 RPM and that was at 73.5 mph (spedo set via gps), and the milage was 14.4 miles to the gallon. The temp was 5 Fahrenheit and 50/50 blended Fuel. Wish it was summer to get strait #2 and warmer temps to get better Milage.

I'd say thats pretty good for a lifted truck, bigger tires and the power you're making.

I wish mine would get that but it's just too cold out up here in the north to consider worrying about mileage. I'm happy if its over 12mpg
