My Nelly Belle (truck in sig) gets 16 Mpg on my commute and 18 at a steady 70 Mph. Although I expect it to drop now that I put on the BFG 31" KOs from the 235/75/15.
YMMV
Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas

That makes me feel better about my 6. I lost no mpgs stepping up to 31s and get 20mpg at 65-70mph.

I'll keep you guys updated when the new rear end and 33s go on

Every truck I've rode In with Flowmasters had terrible drone. Like I wouldn't be able to stand it for a 35 mile trip. FYI.
