5.5, 33s, 3.73 gears and get about 16 highway. but when im in the city i tend to floor it after every stop because i like to hear my exaust
, so i probably get around 10 city.
it really just depends on how you drive.

I have a 3" lift, surco roof rack, 31's, auto trans, neon injectors. I get 11-13 mpg. I have tried everything and can't get it better. Thinking about a k&n filter but I go off-road often and don't wantall that dust slipping past it.

I'm on 4.5" with 31's, neon injectors, 99 intake, comp cam, apn header, flowmaster, stock 3.07 gears (5 speed), and I'm getting about 18-20 on the highway and 15-17 in the city.
