Did some maintenance today too. Put some air in the tires, dropped the spare to check its pressure, cleaned all 3 MAF/MAP sensors, changed the cabin air filter, cleaned the interior, used the leaf blower to blow out the bed and double checked that the fluid level in the diff was correct as who knows if things "settled" since I've driven it a few miles!

Well I have the small mod/upgrade bug again 
I was running an errand and decided to stop by the Oreillys on the way home and ordered an AFE Dry drop in filter. Guy said it should be here Wednesday or sooner than that!

Well I'm mostly stock on the exterior. Only upgrades on the outside that would affect mileage would be mud flaps, bug deflector, window vents and tonneau cover. I'm also doing everything I can to get that mileage. No speeding, hard accelerations and no idling. Also running midgrade though that may do very little to nothing MPG wise.

Well I've pretty much decided that next month I'll be putting new tires on the truck and possibly new shocks. At my last oil change they said I'm going to be needing new brakes soon. Depending everything I may be changing those our here very soon once I finish working 7 days/70hrs a week and go back to 40.

Trucks getting dropped off Friday night. Getting spark plugs and brakes done and shocks looked at Saturday morning. Just rolled over 135k and believe the plugs and shocks are original.
