none to speak of bro... there's a guy here with a nice V8 S10 but I dont think he'd take it on that long of a trip with a 400SBC/TH400/9" w/4.56's... he says it gets about 7mpg on the hwy with his gear and non locking 4800 converter...

-there's also a possibility of a truck like mine going... black, but all stock.
