Pretty pumped!
I just did around 200+ Mile trip today from where I live (31' elevation) to Tahoe (6,200' elevation) lots of mountains and some 4x4'n with my 5 star 91 performance/tow tune, I averaged 18.7 mpg. I'm leveled and am not easy on the pedal but do use cruise control when possible on freeway and the highway up there I can't do more than 65mph with all the curves.
Same trip before with no 4x4'n I averaged high 16's low 17mpg with stock tune.

Figure once I get my 33's it will be around the milage I had on stock tune with my custom tune

With my set up in my sig I can average 20mpg at 65mph. I wouldn't doubt you would be the same especially if your running gas with zero ethanol.

Interesting, maybe I no longer exist?????....

Lol

I have 305/55/20 Toyo AT2 Extremes with a 2" level and 3" blocks on the back.

The tires are retardedly heavy for an AT

That makes me feel better about my selection. I've been eyeing the 275/65/20 or the 285/55/20s but was worried about the weight and mileage/performance drop. How do you like those toyos?

They are fantastic 3 season tires. They are even pretty good in snow. But not on ice or hard packed snow. But that could also be the width. But wearing very nicely and have an awesome look for not being that loud.

This is comparing to duratracs and kelly TSR's. Those tires were better in the winter but also louder and wore quicker.

Osris, this might make you feel better about being locked into only 5 star tunes, not being able to try others.
I got an LET 91 performance tune this morning , installed it and ran it today and put my 5 star 91 p/t tune back on truck this evening. (going to stock in between)
The LET tune isn't bad by any means but as of now I like the 5 star waaay better. I data logged and sent to LET so I'm hoping I'll receive a revised tune and see how it goes.
The 5 star just seems to pull better in the low end and I like how the throttle/gears are right there when ever you need them. The LET seemed to be lacking in that area.

Like I said though, I've got to give him a chance and see what else he sends me and it's not bad just not great as of right now.
