We aren't supposed to get more than a shower but other than that it's just going to be cold and windy.

Had the tire pressure light come on yesterday. No low tires so I just got back from the dealer and they reset the sensor's and cleared the light. They put 55 lbs of air in each tire and it rode like a buggy so I dropped them back down to around 49 front and 47 rear. I usually run about 44 and 42 with no problem's with tire wear. Going try the truck on the road after lunch.

Lifetime on the truck says 16mpg, but the first 1800 miles were pulling a 29ft enclosed trailer the mountains snowmobiling getting around 12mpg. On the highway with no head wind ive gotten over 20mpg with a head wind 17mpg. Just turned over 18,000 miles the other day.

I still drive my '05 quite a bit tho, just can't get rid of it.

That's still not bad with a large truck. I'm still getting a consistent 16 town and up to 18 hwy. Highways down here are flat so that's a plus but we have to use the AC most of the year. Mid 80's down here now!
