I did take the back seats out, and have stock height and stock size tires, and an electric fan for the engine. Took the skid plates off too, but thinking about putting the fuel tank one back on. I backed into a tree branch the other day and put a little dent in my new fuel tank.Explorer with the filled in back end has a little better aero than a pickup with an open box as well.
My carbed 5.0 with a 5speed gets upper teens loaded for adventure on the highway. I wish I could fuel inject it and see if I could get any more out of it.
