Payload package

Hello folks, I just bought a 04 s-cab 4X2 XL with the payload/tow package. I have about 1000 miles on it now, mileage is running in the 12 MPG range. Does anyone have any insight an what a truck with the 4.10 gear might get when it get broken in? I also have a vibe problem at 50-55 mph and sometimes get the "nibble" at 60-75 mph. It is going back to the dealer on Monday for those those problems to be addressed, is there any dealer bull***** I need to watch out for? This is my 1st post, seems like an excellent site.... Thanks, Caddy63
