Haha yeah- mileage is a big joke. Although I have managed to maintain a whoping 13 MPG for the first 2 tanks. Not that it matters much. It is not going to be the DD, but at least I don't have to risk driving the T/A in unfavorable conditions anymore

Thanks guys

Stryker- I don't have any plans for it in the immediate future, but give it a little time. I'm sure I will get bored with it being stock. I can definately see wheels/ tires, and maybe a bigass brush guard with some offroad lights & winch mounted to it as the first mods. It could probably use an air intake and exhaust as well. But for a while I just need to get used to owning it. Never even owned a truck before.
