I don't see anything other than some other possible issue as far as the muffler swap and decrease in mileage goes. How are you calculating your mileage? Winter gas?

And to all the old men driving like ladies.. my foot is always on the pedal. Half the people that ride with me ask why I have to drive like I stole it all the time. Not speeding, just love to get up to speed a bit quicker than most. And love the way it pulls too much to drive it any slower.

Still don't understand those who buy trucks, with a v8... only to complain about the gas mileage.... buy a honda

Hahaha, you sound a lot like me! Although, I have a hard time NOT driving at least a little over the limit.

HILLARIOUS

I'm looking to get my truck 'flowin and I anticipate the same kind of response from my wife. Especially once she sees how much $$ it's going to cost

But like your wife, she'll be all over it after she hears it for the first time
