1st Post... Awesome!!!

Hi Guys,

1st post but I’ve been surfing the forum for a while now. Just bought an 08Super White CM SR5 5.7L with flow masters and 6-inch lift on 35's; she's a beaut! I've put about 400 miles on her and I’ve noticed that I’m only averaging about 9 miles per gallon. Don't get me wrong I didn't buy her to conserve gas. I've had a viper SRT10, every version of the Cadillac Escalade, and a 23 footer 440 HP dual engine speed boat, so I’m all about gas consumption, but to buy a Toyo with worse gas mileage then my 06 Hummer is funny!!! I'm going to install a TRD CAI next week so I’m hoping for slightly better mileage.

Anyone else with a 6-inch lift experiencing similar gas mileage? Maybe I just need to stop racing every truck I come across in Northern Cali...
