Default Re: How low can you go....

On a recent trip I got 17mpg w/o trying.

The A/C was one on, 70-75mph, no cruise control on. The truck was loaded not me.

After a long stretch (150 miles+) of dirt roads and a high pass we filled up and I still had 14 gallons in the tank!

I got real similar mileage to my friend's V6 Toyota 4-Runner and I kept telling him my truck weighs more, bigger tires and FT 4x4.
