    Hey guys I was wondering if something isn't right here. It turns out I was getting 16mpg then it went to 14mpg. The only thing I have done to the truck is get bfg K02 265s. Does this sound right? I feel like I should be getting more. I don't have a lift or anything.

    Welcome to TW!:thumbsup:Tire's and particularly heavier load range(such as E)can reduce your gas mileage.

    Also be sure to check out the SoCal regional thread section on the forum!:thumbsup:

    I think I see your problem. That woman on top of your truck really hurts your aerodynamics. Doesn't look like she adds much weight, but definitely affects the aero. :p
