Best estimate: $2,100 (in round numbers)

Based on 35,000 miles/yr
26 MPG vs 18 MPG stock (no EPA rating on one-ton truck)
Average diesel price: $3.40/gal

Getting the temperamental GV tamed helped a lot, but my ARE tonneau blew off and that hurt.

All mods long since paid for so 2014 is pure profit.
