During the summer I get 19/21-22 (16-17/18-19 winter) with my truck. I don't drive to aggressively and mostly I drive longer distances so it helps.

my whistle seems to be right as i crack the throttle open. it is much louder with the spacer though. i figured out the idle also. apparently, you need to have a vacuum line hooked up to the idle air controller in order for it to work <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />. the stock hose is a little bit short to fit perfectly, so i have to make a new one.

Update: Checked with the gps today. Have an 8% error factor in the odometer/speedometer using the 265-16's. I noticed a 0.7 mpg gain once I got the exhaust replaced. Must be the o2 sensor likes a tight exhaust system. Add that in with the 8% factor I am getting 15.5 mpg. That is in winter time, with some 4wd engagement. Would expect better in summer conditions with "summer gas". They do change the mixtures here.
Still no way to see the 20's - ever.

I have 265/70 16s(on alu) on in the summer and the winter is 275/70 16s on steel so they are quite a bit heavier which doesn't help. I know that I have some error with the 275s but its minimal(like .5mpg off) my elevation is 2500ft or so. When I was back home in MI at sea level I got about the same.
