And, if you go to 4.56 Gears, you will get lots of low end torque; but, will be unhappy when you get to top end. It won't be there unless you add a blower. Go to this link:

I have 3.73's and 35's. I lost about 5mpg when I lifted my truck.
When I added the edge I gained around 2.5-3 with custom tunes on level 3.
I get around 15 mixed city and highway.

Also, another contributor to your loosing 5MPG was the fact that your truck's actual speed didn't match the speedometer (would have read slower than actual) so the vehicle's computer would have had it staying in gear longer. Hence, why you picked back up some MPG w/ the tuner.
