Thanks to everyone for all of your responses....it's been a few years since I had a heavy duty truck. We parked our RV for a few years and I was running a Ram 1/2 ton that got over 20 mpg on the hiway at 72 mph. I guess I forgot that I am now driving a 6300 pound truck with 4wd...
I remember having an '06 Silverado 2wd and got 12 hiway and 6+ towing a small 5th wheel...ugh.
Anyway, I love the truck, and gas is cheaper (for now), so I'll just grin all the way to the pump...hahaha
Thanks again.
While you are grinning all the way to the pump I'll wave a smile at you while I pass you @75 getting my 20 MPG in my 8,000# truck and not needing to stop at the pump.
