I'm getting 16.1 in a Base model w 2.3, auto trans, 3.73 rear end, plus 33s on 17x8s. I believe the tires and rear end gearing are affecting my mileage. Duh (seems logical). I run in eco mode always and I don't drive aggressively because why beat on my truck. That's dumb.

Thanks!
This video (below) was helpful as a visual, plus info on +18 offset. Just a little poke! Crash bars left on was a must. Insurance and safety thoughts. Wheels were messing with my mind as there's so many choices. At least I had plenty of time to think about it. Still love the Roswells and...

My 8/15 build just arrived at dealer on 10/4. Dealer's 78 miles from plant. There's no logic in logistics. Marked shipped after it arrived. Never received email stating shipped. 12 "Estimated Delivery" dates, 2 email notifications.
