<snip> Well, the subject pretty much says it all, just wondering what you
guys with a 4.7 5-speed 3.92LSD combo are getting for gas mileage, since
that's the combo I'll be going with. </snip>

Hey Dave!

As long as I set the cruise at 73mph, I get 20mpg per tank averaging 80%
highway. Faster is worse, slower is a bit better. My problem is the Detroit
traffic runs me over at this speed :) I can't go any slower lol.

It's a great drivetrain! You'll experience a bit less with the extra weight
and friction of the 4X4.
