Youre fuel mileage is normalish. Google is your friend. Read this - its a recent post about the same thing.

Those are not standard DTC codes, where are you getting them?

A beater commuter car for "empty" daily driving.
Use the truck only for what it does best: Pulling things.
As was said in the post above mine. It's NORMAL. Sounds right about where it should be depending on the weight/aerodynamics of what you're hauling.

OP, yep sounds pretty normal depending on specs.
Cody...You wasted one of your few remaining posts on this??? Just kidding, as always I hope you change your mind, but I understand where you are coming from. BTW like the Andrew Wilkow avatar better than the Beavis or Butthead, whichever it was...
