According to the onboard computer that comes with the truck I've been averaging anywhere from 13- 13.7 mpg. I'm not sure how accurate that is, but I have to baby it pretty well to stay above 13.5 mpg. I haven't checked with highway driving yet though.

Fair enough. I figure he'll also not like the price of 18-20" tires. :shame:
