    Scroll back about the guy getting 13.5, you’ll feel better.

    Remains to be seen I bought the tires and wheels the rest came along
    So many things factor into fuel mileage .

    type of driving / Amount of added weight you carry around.

    In my case I could unload an easy 1000 pounds every few weeks.

    Where the truck lives

    Mileage on engine / Last major tune up.

    As long as I never dropped below 10 mpg I am happy.

    I would expect better, but it could be that low depending on conditions.

    Does the 4 cylinder really get the same as the V6? That's crazy. I have never seen 15 on my 98, 5 speed, 3.4. Lifted with 32x10.50 I get 17-19 in town and up to 22 traveling. 65mph is the key to that though.
