Re: Gas prices change your mind about mods?

Yup, Mileage shouldn't be a concern if you're buying a truck, or modding the truck. I've got a mod in mind to increase my MPG, I call it the Cobalt mod. What you do is go out and buy a Cobalt (or any other fuel miser), then ...

Re: Not a popular choice, turned AFM back on

Mine is the 6.0 and my 02 with the 5.3 got exactly the same 14-15 as the 07. Its weird. Tomorrow I will fill the tank and see how what the mileage is. I think the reason for my low mileage is I never really get the truck warmed up. I only drive 15 miles every couple days to and from work, then ...
