Oh it hurts these trucks that bad? Because I noticed i'm getting dismal mileage (even though I AM harping it pretty good this tank). It was actually beginning to **** me off..

haha ya it kills your fuel mileage. When you start getting bad fuel mileage it's usually something pretty simple like an air filter or something.

as long as the smoke is black, getting on it a little will pour some coals
