Well, I haven't been on in a while so I figured I would update my progress. I am traveling overseas for work so I haven't driven my truck in almost 2 months, but prior to this trip, I was getting an average of 26-28MPG on winter gas. The ScangaugeII definitely helped me out as far as adapting my driving style for better gas mileage.
What I've done since last post:
Full Exhaust (inc. Cat)
Synthetic 0W30 motor oil
Synthetic Transmission Fluid
Synthetic Differential Fluid
New Driveshaft Carrier Bearing (2pc driveshaft)
Removed Mudflaps
Bosch Icon Wipers (low-pro)
I have a 4'x8' sheet of ABS waiting for me at home that will go into doing the grill block-off as well as starting a belly pan.
Most of the changes so far are along the lines of simple maintenance. Once I actually do a few aero mods, I don't think that 35MPG will be to difficult to obtain. Until next time....
