What’s your gas mileage

So I’m about to install a 6 in lift with 22x14’s and 33’s. I was wondering what gas mileage y’all get???

 

No lift but I’m pretty fat. Steel front bumper, winch, alu cab canopy, roof rack with crap on it, rtt. I average 16.5

 

I usually see around 22 miles per gallon with some mix of highway, town/city and country (I live in the sticks).

Oh, my is stock, no mods. Less than 2K miles.

If you’re going 6” why are you doing 33s? You can get 33s on a 3” lift without having to go beyond the point of no return by welding in a new crossmember

 

pretty much stock, mix of city / highway- this is about average under those circumstances- and I like to wind it out on the highway.

 

13.8

 

12-14. I've gotten much better on long trips & keeping my foot off the gas. 4" lift, 33's, & winch.

You should consider 35's with a 6" lift, unless you like to skip leg day

 

Cause you cant really fit 22x14s with a 3 inch lift lol

19-21 when unladen. 17-20 when loaded down with RTT and enough supplies to live off grid for a week. 32's, hidden winch, light foot.

 

Lol, this can't be real

Welcome aboard!

 

Trade in on a Gladiator would be cheaper, no? Seems like 22" rims would defeat the purpose of a 6" lift. You'll have the clearance to go over anything, but won't be able to air down enough for serious offroading. I'd aim for 16 or 17" rims if you plan on any serious offroading. Anyway, I'm at 16.7mpg combined with a DCSB MT and a 1.5" lift with 32" skinny KO2 tires, no front spoiler, standard bumper, and two load bars on an aluminum canopy. I was 17-18mpg stock. The lift and the tires is what brought me down to 16.7. I'm at 15mpg with a RTT and loaded to 6000lb cruising at 80mph.

Here is what hits gas mileage the worst:
Highway:
Lift - more air goes under the dirty side, even 2" is noticeable on mpg
Heavy sidewall tires - increases rolling resistance
No front spoiler - more air goes under the dirty side
High clearance bumper - more air goes under the dirty side
Anything on the roof - top becomes a second dirty side
City:
Truck weight - more to accelerate
Everything that kills MPG on the highway, but to a lesser degree.

 

Before anyone get's their jimmys all rustled..im gonna say it... This truck doesn't seem like its an off roading build, at least not one that sees more than the occasional fire road.

 

I'm wondering
