Default well...

I have a 99 4x4, the best i have hit is 24-26 on the highway drafting big trucks as much as possible and running 70+ mph. seeing that yours is a 2wd, you might do better, the thing about the 3.0 is that it loves the higher rpm. you might not get anywhere fast from a get go, but it will go at higher speeds long as your not doing anything straining to the truck(example..towing a enclosed trailer). at the higher prms, the engime smooths out a bit and ust hummms right along.

its not that we are unwilling...its that we shouldnt have to. this is such an EASY thing to find with 5 seconds of search.

in fact, ill bet in the time it took him to write his post, he could have found the answer by searching; meaning he would have not only gotten his answer faster, but not added another useless post to the boards for future searchers to have to sift through.

yes true sludge and although it is annoying, it gives us all something to read and do while we are waiting for new parts to arrive, or just waste more time, and i think that 2nd comment might make this guy not wanna come back lol, we are the best rbv site, and this may lower our standards lol. but oh well i think that 2nd comment was funny
