THAT is absolutely AWESOME! Never thought something like that would exist for the 6.5. Suweet! I may end up with one of these on my 6.5.

As for MPG, my mom and sis took it on a drive last weekend and got 18.4 mpg on my C1500, with 3.73's and 235/75/15 snow tires... It has "marine' injectors, though I don't think that really means crap IMHO.
