Sorry, that was with the 4 speed. After the swap, I'm getting 13+ with the trailer and not sure without because I don't drive it much without the trailer. I would estimate at least 17-18+.

I'm getting between 11-12 mpg's in my 2006 5.4L 2WD with a 6" lift and 35's.

does a lift and tires effect the miles?

Yes, with the lift you have increased wind drag. The tires increase rolling resistance and if you don't change gearing the engine works harder to turn the tires.
