    I’m not sure about a winch yet. I haven’t yet needed one but did think about a Smitty or warn.

    My gas mpg is around 11.5 - 13 and maybe 14mpg if I am really lucky. Upgrading will cost you. I get about 270 to the tank if I am lucky. I just filled up today and it was 198 miles with just over 17 gallons. Not pretty at all. Adding weight and bigger shoes has surely cost me.

    Yeah that’s why I’m sticking with 275.

    Save it and just get good tires lol

    If you must spend it just get some good coil overs and not spacers. Might have enough for some good coil overs and tires, possibly sliders.

    I see some Tundras lifted crazy high with 35s, I wonder what MPG they must be getting.

    On the way up from my house to Asheville I kept it moderate at 65mph and I got up to 15 mpg. I was ecstatic
