I have an AEM Brute Force performance air intake and a dumped glasspack.... Last time I calculated it I was getting 20 on the highway, and about 13-16 in the city depending on my leadfoot. lol And I have the 4.0

you drive a TRUCK. 22mpg is good for your TRUCK. if you do not like the mpg's of your TRUCK buy a toyota or a honda.

Im getting anywhere between 25-28 highway. Then again, I have no ac, no power steering so there's less things robbing power under the hood.

I don't think any of us are getting the gas mileage we use to get. The newer fuel with ethanol is crap! I have heard we are loosing about 20% of our MPG because of it. I’ve also heard the non ethanol fuel puts the same amount of "pollution" out the tail pipe because the computer controls what goes out.

I put 50.6 on a half tank because I had to leave it run for about 20 minutes the other day to warm up. It was -6 at my house...
