I once got 28 mpg with stock tires, stock height, 4" exhaust, 55 mph on flat ground with the cruise control on and 100 degrees ambient temp. Then I lifted it, put fat tires on it, put the edge evo on it and never saw above 14 mpg again. Winter blend knocked it down to 11 mpg.
It will be interesting to see what the Cummins does for mileage. I'm seriously thinking of dropping the height WAY down and going back to stock tires.
