tranny slip?
I was reading one of those mpg post and someone suggested that a slipping tranny could be the cause, I do notice a slight slip in mine from a dead stop, more noticed when towing and when warm. I wanna do the bts VB soon is this a good idea with this issue or not, no budget right now for a complete overhaul, any suggestions?

If the trans is really slipping, you'll know VERY quick. A trans that is slipping usually won't last 10 miles.
