Some of the speed limits in Texas have been raised to 75 mph. If you don't go about 75, you will get run over.

2011 SCAB, 4x4, 3.55's. Just turned 900 miles on the odo this morning.

First 500 miles never reset the meter and averaged 16.3.

Reset the meter to see what I would get on just my 30 mile commute home on the interstate. 19.5 at 70-75 mph.

Haven't reset it again and my average is down to 15.8. I have been playing a bit and testing the Advance-Trac to see if I can live with it.

I noticed the last couple days the extreme cold really lowers the mileage. It does a bit more idling to warm up in the cold weather but even at highway speeds the bars don't seem to reach as high on the graph when the temps are near 0.

Supercab 4x2 3.55's with 33's and a 2" level. 10,000 miles

14.0 avg MPG

I average 75 on the highway and drive like a grandpa in town. About 30/70 hwy/city. Thats what the truck shows, I need to track my mileage and do it with a calculator to get a true mpg. Or hit 36,000 miles and buy a tuner
