Default What is your mpg with lift?

Alright I'm dying to get a Rancho lift for my '08 and would really like to know how much it's gonna knock my mpg's. Does anybody mind telling me what lift they run, tire size, and mpg's they're receiving? Much appreciated!

i can tell you one thing. you wont like the number

while in dallas driving in the city i got 8 mpg on average and that was before the level and 37's. in nashville i get around 10.5. once i leveled and put 37's im down in the low 9's. I expect it to be somewhere in the 7's when i get back to dallas. Tires have more to do with it than the lift. but obviously they both factor in

I've got a 6" fabtech lift with 355/65/18 tires (i think they're right around 37") and I'm getting about 11mpg on the highway and around 9 in the city. My new tires will be here next week (38") so we'll see how much they affect the mpg.

Well that's not too bad. I'm getting 10.5 with mine in the city. Do y'all have programmers?
