That's awesome! The previous owner of my truck (very similar to yours) said it got 20-21 MPG right off the showroom floor. With a little more air, bigger exhaust and a chip and I am not surprised at all. The most important thing you have done, or actually didn't do, is put on oversized tires. Makes a huge difference. These trucks can get decent fuel mileage. Your's proves it. Enjoy!
