    I believe it is just the A/T's as the tsb wipes the trans memory (learning) and resets shift points. My understanding was that it was originally supposed to fix the A/T's issue with stutter/hesitation at 1500 to 2500 rpm upon full/heavy throttle input from a stop (supposedly only an issue in high elevation areas).

    Ouch. Called out, on the public forum, even.

    Let’s just say that the 4R doesn’t get great gas mileage. Blah blah, roof rack, heavy e-rated tires, carry a lot of weight (Fridge, tools, etc)....Add into it that I have a lead foot, and a lot of traffic in my commute, and it averages on a good week to about 14mpg city.

    Highway, on trips... ~16.5 is a good average for me. With the tent on...drop that down to 14.5.

    Gas stations be all like :evil: and me all like :spending: .

    Totally worth it, though.

    Also, how screwed am I with stock suspension? ~270 steel bumper on my SR5. Is that going to sag like a mofo or what?

    I mean, obviously I'll be upgrading at some point but that's farther in the future haha

    Your def gonna sag as far as how much I don’t know? I’d imagine maybe 1/2-3/4 in at most. But it’ll look damn good no one will notice it to much. Your truck is put together well with the shell, roof rack, an rims with the bumper to round it all out.
