Anyone have any good ideas on getting better gas mileage out of one of these.
Mine gets at best 17 mabey this is just as good as they get but I have heard better out of them.

Thanks for the info. DO K&N filters help enough to make it worth the money?

might get about 18 with the k&n.... 17 is about all my 03 gets... took it to minnesota last weekend and got 16 bucking wind on the way there, and got 13 on the way back pulling a small uhaul trailer.... either way 17 really isnt bad for a pickup

Thanks guys. Yeah 17 is pretty good for a pickup but it definitely doesn't average that. It does get pretty good mileage for a 4 wheel drive pickup though.

anyone have any insight on those hho systems out there? Or is it just another gimmick to make money.
Theoretically the hho hydrogen is 120 octane so it should work.I'm sure some of those systems being sold are rip offs and miss advertisement.
