    Oh god, here comes the shit storm again haha:crapstorm:. I don't usually keep things for one periods of time lol. I like to switch it up. I love these tires now but they seem so small on my lift. Everytime I look at my truck, I'm like damm to small. I heard the duratracs look bigger when mounted. I guess when I ordered them last April, I should of just kept them dammit:mad

    Duratracs are pretty heavy. I am down around 17 mpg with my 255 MTs. I will also be patient and save the $700 for the iphone 5.

    And you're bitching about 16 mpg with your dynapros!? Seriously dude? Wheel or drive a Prius. Those are your options. Leave those poor tires out of this

    I'd worry about your exhaust because those duals are fucking your back pressure right up the tailpipe. I can almost guarantee that's your problem, and would put $20 on my hypothesis being true. Engines need back pressure.

    It was around 17 before I put the bumper on. The bumper didn't take much off.

    I'm not complaint dude lol. Just saying . Exhaust didn't effect mpg alot cause I didn't see a different in change to that. Maybe I lost a half of mpg but that was it. I don't want a Prius I like my truck. I'm just saying I wanna change tires lol.

    I would rather get shit mileage than have a cute little four banger in my truck. My little Mazda commuter car makes more power than your truck.

    I'm just saying, you are almost certainly losing a lot of mileage with that exhaust. I have the same tires you do and I'm getting 20.4 with the same engine and a different exhaust.

    2.5 or 2.3? Power isn't everything I'm happy with my cutesy four banger. Sounds like a relaxed Subaru

    I love my new truck but miss my Tacoma
    So let me see if I get this right Miguel. Your truck is a 2010 and so far you have had the stock tires, General grabbers, Duratracs, BFGs, Hankooks and now your gonna change them up again? Wow I would say you have a problem.

    Loss of back pressure with dual exhaust. Meaning you have to push the pedal further to get going.

    Ummmm well idk dude. How's my miles are you getting on a tank of gas. I'm getting 265 on a tank. I'm not too concerned about mpg just trying to get the most I can.
