2006 XLT with 3.55 gears & stock 265/60r18's.

Prior to my lift I was running about 1800/1900 rpm's at 70 mph. I could get up to about 73 mph before I hit 2000 rpm's and that was usually about right where I set my cruise.

I know I bought a truck to do truck things, and not for great gas mileage, but I get 11mpg at 70 mph (or 2000 rpm). I have the k & n fipk and exhaust (I don't know what brand) and it just seems like 17 mpg is more than I'll ever get.

Actually my last tank of gas before my lift I got 17.1 mpg's. My last few tanks (after lift) have been horrible, latest was 10.8 mpg's. I knew going into the lift and bigger tires I would see a drop, but not quite this much. Of course my speedometer/odometer have not been recalibrated yet so I don't think my mpg's are 100% accurate yet. Can't wait for the Troyer tunes to come in so those things can be corrected.
