I'm really getting into this gas mileage thing. On the interstate for about 45 miles, I got 22.4 with the cruise at 68. It is still improving. No telling what I could get if it were not for red lights. May just start running all the red lights. LOL

Why not, the cop should understand why you ran it when you say "gas mileage"

Just tell the cop when you run the red that you're going green trying to save mpgs......

If you get caught. Convince them your sole purpose was/- conserving energy. Unfortunately, thinking green has a few adverse effects.

Nice truck but I am not digging the grill, although it matches the wheels I guess but not feeling that portion of it. Other than that I would drive it

Looks better in person, Im not even into blacked out trucks but I like it... I wouldnt buy it but its nice to see the dealership trying (new owner at this one).
Once I put the pic on facebook I noticed the air dam under the bumper.. It must be bolted to the frame, it looks outta place with the body lift on

That air dam underneath is part of a stock 2011. *It may be to keep dirt out of the altenator and air compressor.
