i have 3 inch runnin right off the cats with my own x pipe

it could also be my power steering pump, im getting a new one installed thursday, it whines like hell, maybe producing like extra drag on the motor?

I got 260 on my tank. That last 1/8 lasted a while. I just filled up again today, lets see what happens this time around, if i dont get closer to 300 I'll have to get that thing checked out.
Thanks for all the input guys

Wender, I have the same truck only on 03. I get 17\17.7 MPG I just filled up 18 gallons and got 320 miles. This is a mix of 60/40 highway/city about.?.?. I just bought mine to like 3 weeks ago all i did was change the air filter "stock," Denso iriduims IK20 plugs, and cleaned the MAF sensor with MAF cleaner from CRC. I also changed the oil even though it didn't look like it need it at all. I've noticed the truck run better noticably better. I think your gas milage is a little off I get 150 to have a tank now thats light footed 90% of the time. Not sure but you may want to check all those things and your wires, cap, and rotor those may be old and you may have to replace them.

What size is the tank and what do you guys get for a range?
These are all highway miles too, so I should be getting decent MPG.

Thanks.

260 is not that abnormal. I'd also consider myself a conservative driver for the most part. Since I got the AT's on I never try to smoke the tires as it's nearly impossibly anyway

I have never broken 16 MPG it my truck.. and I also I have never gotten more than 16.2 gal in that thing.. I get a little scared when the light turns on.

16.765 mpg average before tune up
17.220 mpg average after.
I'm running 87 octane, full synth for all fluids, and a camper shell.
