Not that much...It is more gearing than anything. I have over 7" of lift with 35" tires.
Although a tannau (sp?) cover can help.

Tom,
    Do you think the extra 5.5" in height could have added enough wind
resistance on the hi-way to cause this loss in gas mileage??? I know it
didn't help the situation any. SEMIHEMI01
