Yeah that sounds pretty bad. I usually get around 300 per tank. Sometimes less if it's a lot of city driving, but usually high 200s or low 3

hmm... seems strange that dual / quad exhaust would have restricted things to the point of getting less MPG. I know before the larger tires I was always getting above 300. And after I would get between 270 - 315ish depending...

i kno right, its def not restricting it tho, but i think with mine, its cuz i shifted the power band up higher, most of my power with that setup is up top n like i do have to get the RPMs up to get it moving

what did help tho was my bed cover

I've never filled it with more than 16.5 maybe 17 gallons at the most. I usually get about 290-310, about half city half highway right when the light comes on.
