Manual or auto? What gears do you have? 4wd or 2wd? If you have a 4wd, Auto, and 4.10 gears, then your pretty much in the money for mileage.

well its an auto 4wd and im not sure on gears but it probably dont help its a mega cab with a 6in lift and 37s under it haha. good thing i have my 00 that gets 22-25
