    I am mostly stock and average 19.5. Got all they way down to 18 mpg's, but a fresh set of plugs, throttle body clean, and MAF clean got me back to 19.5. I've seen tanks over 20 if I really baby her.

    Its mostly flat where I live.

    Installed ARB roof rack mount and welded up a rack to fit it. Can't believe the money people charge for some damn tube steel. I already had a JD Squared bender and a tig welder and some 1" .120 wall tube steel. Spent $40 on the cross bars and took me about a day to do the bends and the notching and the welds. I bought the ARB rails because I didn't feel like dealing with making templates and stuff to figure out the roof mounting and I figured they're pretty tried and true. Now I have a way to mount a RTT and carry dirt bikes in the bed.

    After swapping the third brake light out for a smoked led version yesterday, today I swapped the tails for a smoked version. The original OEM version is for sale if anyone is interested.

    Little people like 'em, if you have any of those around. I did something similar to make the rear more useful

    Custom bed bars installed. Bedside and cooler mounts finished. I also upgraded my RTT ladder to gain a little clearance and some traction.

    The new ladder actually has some nice rubber on the feet :)

    The Tepui ladder is much more stable and sits a couple inches lower.

    I noticed it was so low I figured you were using the tire as a ladder.

    This truck used to be quiet. Not with the Front Runner roof rack. Seriously so loud now. Hopefully this will help!
