    If I were worried about weight or MPG, I would have left it stock. As long as I'm 12 or over, I'm good. Currently the way it sits, I average 14.5. On the highway, I can still squeeze 17 if I don't go over 65.

    They are SMOOTH on the road!

    I fall a sleep at 65. My drive to work is 55 for 6 miles 75 for 12. Getting 20.5 mpg. Will sacrifice down to 18 but nothing less. I think I am gona leave this as my mall rated DD and do a trail 4x4 rig.

    It's 12 running over 65. I'm sure it's more wind resistance than anything else. I can get 18 if I try... but I like the sound of the exhaust, and go where I'm going. Stock I was getting 18 average... so I lost 4 MPG in 10 years, but the truck is a ton more fun and useful to me now.

    Oh. That isn't so bad, I thought you'd be more around 20+ stock.
