Here's a couple. with the rack back on the truck. The truck is a dirty girl.




and.....fuel mileage isn't a big deal to me. If I was really concerned about it, I wouldn't drive a truck. But some have been skeptical of the mileage I say I get in my truck. Here's a shot from my ultragauge from the last two weeks. Considering how heavy my truck us and heavy 33's and stock gears I'm not gonna complain about 18+ mpg.

 

Dafuq. I'll trade with ya

 

Well i must say, new LCA bushings, LBJ's, alignment, new billies up front made my truck ride like new. I'll give it some more miles to confirm all is good but for now im happy as bear shit! Hope these shocks last longer than the first set(4yrs-45,000miles).

Thanks I'll keep an eye out

 

If you are talking about the MPGs, X2. How the hell do you get 18 MPG with that much weight?

 

I don't think I get 15 with just tires and rims...

 

x3
I get 13-14

 

Is your speedo correct. Have you checked it against a gps?

 

I get upwards of 18.5-19 with 3" lift, 33's sliders, and a front bumper with stock gears so it doesn't seem that unrealistic to me.. I get over 20 on the highway.

 

And your stock? Jesus. I get 18 hwy on a good day. 3 inch lift with 32s. Before the lift I was able to get 24 hwy

 

almost.
1-1.5'' lift up front, 265/75/16 load range E AT's

And most importantly, heavy foot +city driving+driving like a californian (just to survive).

When i move i'll be driving 2,000 miles all freeway, so i expect my MPG to be 19-20.

 

Getting 14 right now... But I never drive more than 2-3 miles at a time under 30mph so the truck never warms up.

I can still get at least 18-19 on the hwy.

 

I still get 18-20, 3" with 265's, bumper, winch and a bed load of crap.

 

The biggest thing is driving style and type of driving. Most of my driving is on the highway doing 60mph and then in the city i'm pretty easy on the gas too.
