ATTN: ALL 5.0 OWNERS

Well I have run about 4 tanks of gas through the 97, so I am starting to get a feel of what kind of milage its getting. This truck is 100% stock, AWD, running Amoco 87 octane fuel. I get about 16 mpg city/hwy mixed, and around 18-20 on the highway (75-80mph) So far Im impressed, thats quite a bit better than the 15 mpg I was getting with the 91...

Ok I checked mine out, 9-11mpg city and 15-18mpg highway crusing at 80mph

thats crappy i need to make some changes.
 






I get 9-12 city 15-18 highway on my 2wd its crappy but.. I've stopped expecting much from this truck.

ya I noticed the 4wd harness too.. I've often wondered if I got a 4wd bezel and turned that swtich on if the 4wd light on my guage cluster would come on lol, probablly not
 






30PSI?....man my 255/70/16 SUV cross country michielins are ran at 40psi and still have a fat footprint....
 






Update, I have had a K&N in the truck since I bought it and recently I cut open the fender side of the air box. City mileage went from 12.9 to 13.6.
