I only see 'bout 14-15. Usually 13-14 with a REAL heavy foot. If I'm nice, I
can get 16 or maybe 17..That's with a '97 V6, 3.90, LSD, blah, blah, blah...

tank size has no affect on mileage (except to a minute degree of toting a
bit extra weight of gas). Show me a v6 dak that gets 15mpg and I'll show
you how to get an extra 5mpg. Like I said, something aint right in that
truck if it's getting that kind of mileage.
