Those 16-18 mpg sounds about right... I wouldn't think you'd get much more than that as long as its stock. I've heard good things about the K&N air filter tho... that might boost your mileage. Otherwise, yeah... my (current) daily driver is only getting 13-14mpg. But you love on 'em anyways, right?

I run my good years at 60psi the max on them is 65psi cold, look at your tires to make sure. The psi is the fastest gas robber besides a clogged airfilter or even worst a clogged fuel filter..

and yah, going back to metric 32"s that are a/t's looks REEEEEALY lame compared to my 285 m/t's....but...saves the duckets. Saves wear on the m/t's too

Doing the formula I'm getting 18 1/2 mpg consistantly.....except the first week I did the ISR mod-17 that week. Prior to the mod I was getting 19+ but oh, that noise! I do about 30/70 highway/city driving.
I have Michelin LTX M&S on mine currently, no lift, pretty much stock.
