Question Bosch Platinum +4's

Has anybody installed them and if so, what is your mpg's? I have installed them on mine but I also added anywhere between 600 - 700 lbs to the truck for the winter at the same time, checking mpg's myself but would like something to compare too (no load). I'll be taking the weight back out next April so I'm trying to figure out where I stand, whether their were a good buy or not. They cost me $9.00 CDN a piece compared to $3.00 CDN a piece for Motorcrafts. Any help and/or information would be greatly appreciated.

Have Fun & Keep on Truckin'

Just gassed up and check mileage, and it is about 13 mpg. Not bad considering my truck went from 5080 lbs. to over 5600 lbs. for the winter. What do you guys think, it did a long run during the summer empty and got around 24 mpg's, never really check in the city to compare to the 13. I will have to recheck in the spring after the weight comes off.
