    Just filled up the tank from my road trips yesrerday.

    17 mpg

    Half with the softopper and half without. Including a bit of steel in the bed and a passenger.

    Glad it didn't go down too too much with the 285s. I curious what the topper will do for me.

    Nothing have you ever watched mythbusters they did a whole show on this. Topper no topper, tailgate up or down and tracked fuel mileage. The biggest thing going for you is baby taco = light weight. I'm @14.5 mpgs

    Alright does anyone know if this bumper sold awhile back? It was posted on cl and on their for awhile. I spoke with the owner about purchase and i put it on the back bruner for a bit due to buying a house. Wondering if it might still be available.

    Couldn't afford the Charvel made EVH guitars, so I had to build my own.

    I don’t mind beating on this one :D

    I did see that one. I think that was some interesting comparisons and a true myth busted.

    I'm happy either way. Already had a chance to utilize the shelter from the topper, and I'm loving the setup so far!

    The trucks are already engineered for best MPGs. The things we do generally only make worse MPG, not better. Likewise, I am about 14 mixed.

    Relentless front and rear bumpers, Warn M-8000S Winch, Relentless RockSliders, bigger tires, bed cover RTT ... and more big changes in the works.
    I need to pull the bearing of my rear axles. They are out of the truck, and I have a press. Does any one have one of the press tools and breathing splitters ii can borrow to remove the bearings and ABS gear rings?

    Or an old rear axle housing I can buy to cut up and make the required tooling?
