Smile went from 18 to 26 mpg with nissan pickup

hey im Brent i have a 97 nissan pickup with 300,000 miles on it when i got it i was getting 18 mpg!
here is a list of mods i have done to get me to 26 mpg in town! that is a 44.4 Percent Increase
oh and by the way there cheap mods!
------------you don't need to spend a lot for better mpg-------------------

free mods Ive done

mug flap delete

i turned in my side mirrors

i taped up some vents for the ac system there on the top of the hood

i had a rubber matt in the back and i took it out it was huge every bit of 50 lbs it was 1/2 thick


tail gate delete


pay mods

i went from 225/75/14 tires to 205/75/14 tires
80 each but needed tires any way

i have a k&n air filter but it came with the truck but i had to buy cleaning kit 12 bucks

i shorted the intake on my truck and used 2inch pvc pipe and i drilled 4 holes in the intake
free i had the stuff laying around but if i had to pay for it it would be like 10 bucks


i cut off my razander can!!!
it cost 10 bucks for the turn down and 4 bucks for the cutt off wheel
