I am getting 17ish right now with the 4.0 in the truck. But I do a lot of stop and go, short trip, etc. Also, in all of it's various configurations over the years this truck has rarely seen anything much above 17.5.

17-18 with a mix of highway/traffic. 20-21 if all highway. Did once get as high as 24 on one trip. All I have is a drop-in K&N filter and tonneau cover, and use the cruise as much as possible. This is a bone stock truck as well.

22 in TN with 4x4 5spd, doesn't seem to matter how I drive it. It's kinda hard to take it easy though coming from a 2.3. It's so much more fun to use the pedal.:D BTW, Only got 18 with the 2.3 in a 2wd. (Note: 30's suck with 3.73s and 2.3)
