I get 10 mpg with my 8.1, 6" lift, 38" tires and stock 4.11 gears so you should definitely get more than 11 mpg.

LOL...that sucks that I almost get the same as an 8.1 L with 38's

Your truck is sick though, it looks mean. Rob

I use to get about 15-17 MPG with 35's. Now I have not watched it since I put a higher stall in. Oh I have a 5.3 with headers back and Black Bear Tune.
