The cost of Cosmetics versus Economy
Well the title explains it all!
I decided to go with a better look.. I left the 255/70R16 and blew up to a 265/75R16.. Boy it gave the truck a new look.. And hurt it bad! I have lost 50 miles off my entire tank.. I still drive the same.. Normally I went to about 350 miles to a tank and now I cant bust over 300! I dont think anything is wrong.. It has 41k miles on the block.. The only thing I can think of is possibly Wires and Plugs.. They are still stock but they should still be good? I dont even know if they affect the MPG.. Maybe O2? No they last till 60k right?
