be careful on the tranny, my co-worker went through 3 of them before he axed it for a hemi model. granted his truck was pushing 45 psi…but still, its the weak link. ---

Veggie Oil FTW. Either way :tup: to you for getting hat you need in a much more practical diesel package. Oh, and I guarantee that the variance in fuel economy is all from the driving style. People complain about the gas mileage of MR2s on the mr2 boards all the time, but I stya out of boost, and accelerate like a grams most the time and see MUCH better economy than my 25mpg average DSM. All depends on how you drive personally. ---

I filled up today… I averaged 17.1 mpg…mostley around town driving…and a little bit of that was getting on it. psh I love this truck…even rides better than the toyota…and its a 3/4 ton…can’t wait to put an intake on this to hear that turbo wistle.
