This is my new daily. Jetta is for sale on tdiclub.
Looking for LRR tires but I really want to run a more narrow wheel combo.
This is what i’ve come up with so far : https://ecomodder.com/forum/member-d...464d65ccd.jpeg

If there’s anyone who has tried this I’d like to hear.

I put the UltraGuage into the truck and it’s shows I avg 25 mpg right now. Mostly highway.

We've got the same year truck, but mine's an SR-2 and I'm getting 17MPG with the 4.3L engine. Mine is also an automatic.

25 MPG is pretty darn good.

It is from what i hear. I made sure to find a stick bc of mpgs. I didn’t know it had the 2.2 when i went to look at it but glad it was after hearing about the 4.3 mileages.
I don’t plan to tow, just to put on an aluminum topper and do some camping. Think i found one in Houston and to get it tomorrow.
Is yours blue also? I’ve never seen that color before.

Nice looking.

So what's the gross weight of the vehicle and the diameter of the tire?

Garage kept and just turned 100k miles. Grandfather died in 2017 and left this. He also left a 2017 Chevy Colorado.

I’ll have to do some research.

Curb Weight: 3,596 lbs?

235/75R15 or 205/75R15?

205’s
google says 3,761 lbs.
Drove to the Woodlands and picked up an aluminum topper. Costs a measly $80. It was hard to find one that fit my truck. Although it sticks up from the cab I didn’t notice any change on the Ultraguage. I went with aluminum for the weight compared to fiberglass.
