That MPG is about right. I get a consistent 15 MPG with about 75% city/25% hiway driving, but I drive it pretty hard. So you could squeeze out a few more MPG by taking it easy on the throtle. Hi flow exhaust and an intake kit should help too. If you do alot of hiway driving, a bed cover might help a little.

My tonneau cover added 1.5MPG to my average. This is a side benefit, because I originally bought it for the functionality.
