    Yes, 11% better fuel economy for 5% more money doubles the difference.... Math is NOT your friend!

    Thats damn near full size! How much power does it draw?

    I was getting around 15 mpg after the oversized tires (with corrected numbers for the 7% larger circumference) and now Im bouncing between 17.1-17.9 depending on how much interstate driving I do at 65 mph (also corrected speeds)

    Between .85 and 2.5 amps. I don't plan to run it as a freezer so I'm guessing here but I expect average draw of a stocked fridge to be at around 1.5 amps per hour. With a national Luna dual battery charger and dual Optima Yellow Tops, I should not have a problem running the fridge for a couple of days. Will eventually get a 60watt panel and a charge controller to keep a maintainable charge on the aux battery.
