Thanks for the quick replies.

UFO-
I've tried the dual vehicle mode... as I mentioned. I had a Ford Focus that was getting somewhere between 36 & 42 depending on my driving style, and a Chevy Z71 for farm & snow stuff. I had double insurance, and was limited to the things I could pick up while near the city. I haul lumber at times, and it's nice to have the truck. Now that I've driven it the time I have, I don't see myself going back unless gas prices get in the $5/gallon range... which very well may happen.

I do think an Ultragauge will help. I do what I can, and try to minimize braking and such, but I'm sure there's so much more I could do. It's all habit. I've attached a few pictures of my truck. I do realize the tires are a little wide @ 10.5", and that doesn't help. I'll worry about that when it's time to replace them.
