I have a gryphon programmer, k&n air filter, cutback and 35" tires and I get around 16 to 16.5 mpg in the city and around 18 on the highway.

When I put my Big wheels on for the summer I lose about 10% of my fuel mileage.... Things ya gotta do to look purdy....

I sure the guys who lift them up and put Big mudders on even lose more..

When I had my 05 Reg Cab 4.6 v8 with single exhaust dumped, Volant intake and 33 inch BFG's leveled I got around 13-14 city and 18 on the highway, with a tailwind occasionally 20.

I dont understand how guys with 35's and lifts claim anything above 15-16 on the highway and 12 in the city without a gear swap, its basically impossible if you look at a gear chart. 2 friends of mine run 35s and neither get very good mileage.
