Anybody have theirs leveled?  Man, I bet mpg would be the single digits for sure.....LOL

Mine is leveled. Running 295/70R18 Nittos (34.6" tire) and a Diablosport tune. Still get 11 mpg city and 13 mpg highway.

Good to know!!  I have the factory 20's on mine now, sure like the look of the leveled trucks, just not ready to buy new skins and not sure if it would look goofey leveled and stock 265/60/20, but that's actually 32.5" just not aggressive tread on the factory Goodyears...

295/60/20s.  Leveled.  4.56 gears.  Highway is 13 to 14 mpg at 70 mph and closer to 15 at the 62 mph limit...  When the truck was bone stock with 3.73s I had no real problem getting 17 to 18 mpg.  Truck is tuned and I run premium fuel but like anything else I have ever owned the tune did nothing for fuel economy and just power.

Stock suspension, custom tune - 99% city driving and I average 13 to 14

10k miles on mine, stock other than cranked bars a couple of turns, removed lower air dam during snow plow mount install.  18" A/Ts.  The DIC says 13.4 for all driving so far, haven't had the chance to haul yet.  Empty at 60 mph in good conditions I can get 18-18.5.  70 drops it to 14-15 mpg.  I am extremely pleased with the fuel economy.  Coming from an LBZ with similar minimal mods my DIC was at 15.9.  Given that gas is presently cheaper than diesel by nearly 20%, lower cost of maintenance and less up front cost, I consider myself way ahead of the game right now.
