I'm getting close to 21 with my new truck which is a 4.6. Rear gears imo have as much to do with mileagae as anything. My 05' had 4.10's, could rip a stump out of the ground but 14 mpg was the max. my new truck has 3.55's.

You may have nailed that Charlie, I didnt even think of the gears my truck with a 5.4 (and big tires) gets around 14 average and it has 373's
