I've been getting 12-13 lately, but I've been warming it up before I drive anywhere. Stupid cold Canada.

Hover around 15mpg with city and highway. John put a block of wood under your pedal!

Most of my driving is in the city. It gets better mileage if I do more highway driving.....

I have no idea what I get in the city other than I know it sucks...the readout for the instant mpg is all over the place....and usually at around 8-12. Highway I average in the 17's pretty easily with my ext cab 4x4 6.0 and w/3.73's. I think I actually get worse mileage after my Blackbear tune and I was "supposed" to get better mileage?? hehe
