If your speedo hasn't been recalibrated don't forget that the mileage (odometer) will be off anywhere from 8-10%.

Although, mine was off only by 4.7%, timed many miles to make sure. I saw a very minimal decrease in mileage.

I haven't seen any decrease in mileage and have seen about one mpg gain on the hiway.

I lost about 1.5mpg. It really depends on your setup. Auto or manual, 3:73 or 4:10?

I have an auto and 3:73s....

From what I have read, the greatest gain is usually the manual 4:10 trucks, and the auto 3:73's usually lose mileage.
