I got 13 on my last tank and 14 on the tank before that. I'm going to get a tonneau and a CAI hopefully that will increase my mpgs. go to this site http://ecomodder.com/forum/fuel-econ...ifications.php if you're looking for ways to improve mpgs.

I put in a magnaflow exhaust and a truXport tonneau and on the first tank with them I got 16 mpgs. I'm working on the second tank right now. But I was pretty stoked because normally I get 14 mpgs and I've gotten 15 before too.

I went to that site and looked around. Some of the ideas are OK. But some are crazy or completely wrong.

I've been getting 14.2 city and 16.5 highway with my chip set at the highest level and using 93 octane. I tested the "fuel saving" setting and I got 12 city plus no balls after a week its back up to performance setting much much better.

I've been thinking of doing the same thing myself.
