The above was a heavy weight Centurion too and got 13 mpg-- with work the Reg Cabs can be put on a diet and can shed 1000 lbs compared to this beast...................with additional rear end mods, modern exhaust updates, latest Banks fuel/air delivery tech, end-to-end lightening (including light weight wheels), smaller tires w/nitrogen and other mods 15-19 on the HWY is very possible.
