I wouldn't do anything until mid-June or July. Right now the stations have winter blend fuel, oxygenated, and mileage has taken a beating. I went from nearly 19.2 mpg higway to 13.4 mpg with just the fuel change, no other change to my truck. If you mileage doesn't come back with the summer fuel then look at doing something. This is all of course assuming you didn't mod your truck in some way; larger tires, removed a bed cover, leveled, etc.
Nice insight, thanks Iright!

Was I yelling? I believe I was "typing", but that's beside the point. Nevertheless, I was asking a general question. Which, by the way, thanks to everyone who replied with insight.
Obviously, this is something your 5th grade educated brain cannot comprehend. Now, take out the trash and clean the litter box before your daddy gets home.
