From your photos, it doesn't look like you have a factory air dam installed. I saw a 0.5 to 1 MPG improvement from installing one on my truck.
Thanks aardvarcus, you have a good eye... no airdam, yet. But watch this space! And running without a grill block right now, after pulling the trailer in some warm weather. It would be interesting to test mpg unloaded on a calm summer day, if there is such a thing!
