    new plugs, filter, synthetic: Check
    265-75X16 tires at 35psi: check
    65mph or under: uh no comment.

    In Utah even if you drive highway all the time i find it near impossible to be driving below 70mph, everyone drives so damn fast and the lowest speed limit in my area on the highway is 70mph.

    33s 3 inch lift, 6 speed Manuel, got 14 MPG, make sure when you calculate MPG with bigger tires that you calculate the percent your speedometer is off by, mine is off about 6%, im happy with 14 mpg with muddies(10 plys), even more happy when i was pulling 80 on the highway to get that number.
