Out of curiosity, how did those 6.5's do for gas milage?
 
I would have no problem hopping in this thing and driving around the world. Good solid rig. I would already own it if I didn't have other things in the works.

Gas mileage is great!! They go forever without using a drop of gas. Fuel on the other hand, is a different story. Sounds like those things go anywhere from 17 city to 24 highway. That 24 sounds a little high to me, but I've seen crazier things. I've also heard the gears do a lot. A set of 4.10s and sounds like 12 is about all you're gonna see regardless of being loaded or dry.
 
Sorry, you got me there :D. Fuel milage it is. Free bump.
 
It has 3.73 gears and slightly larger than stock tires. The speedometer is accurate as measured by roadside radar. It averages 16 with mixed driving (highway cruising, stop & go traffic, local driving.) Watching the speed, it can get around 20-21 on long highway trips. It easily pulls a Jeep on a trailer.
