right now doing 60-65 on the interstate i am running between 2250 and 2500 rpm and it seems to run good in this rpm band . . .

i raised my psi from 26 to 40 in my tires this past tank, and they call for a max of 50 but my truck rides so rough already that i think 40 is enough . . .

i can't drive with my truck off because it is very aero inclined so i lose speed way to much in our hilly terrain . . . so i just lay low on the throttle and just stick it out . . .

i have a bad rear o2 sensor so i am hoping to get it fixed once i get the funds and maybe i will be able to get some descent numbers soon but i was happy with 20.5 on my last tank . . .

i had high hopes for this 3rd tank but i have 5 " of snow around here now so that puts a drag on it . . .
