    You can get good mpg lifted with 33s. I don't think just because you have mods you can't care about mpg, they serve a function and it's perfectly fine to want to be as efficient and functional as possible at the same time. I'm lifted with 32s and can get 25 highway.

    And before I get flamed there's nothing wrong with not caring about it. There's really nothing wrong with any of it and some people choose to get upset when others don't drive like they do.

    I only care as a practical matter - it would be nice to not have to stop and fill up as often. What I want is a larger gas tank. Once you feel the added power band of the SC, you want to feel it again. Gas mileage be dammed!
