I think the truck has a 27 gallon fuel tank and of course my fuel guage doesnt work so I keep track of the fuel by monitoring the odometer. I didn't have ac until recently and I ran out the full tank of gas in 328 miles which I thought was terrible. Since then, I've added an aftermarket air intake and put fresh oil in it and had the ac repaired. I never speed and only drive around town and this time, I ran out of gas in my driveway from a full tank at only 299 miles!! I was almost ready to sell the truck and couldn't believe what poor gas mileage I'm getting (about 11mph) This is with no towing trailers or having any cargo in the truck at all. So is there anything I can do to improve this? what a hog!!
