I think it's fair to say that we all have beaten to death the fact that RPM's effect milage!! You guy's out there running 285's on your truck here's a question. How muck did it drop your RPM's cruising down the road having those taller tires????

Considering I drive alot of buy back 6 liters from F250s to X's, Ive seen anywhere from little as 16-21.5, but that all was depending on 1. my lead foot, 2. manual or auto, 3. tire size, 4. gearing. But thats just what ive seen, and thats on the 3U7A-12A650-FTA cali.
