Well I drove the truck to work this week (304miles round trip per day) and it did flawlessly. I had her opened up most of the time between 70 and 90mph (that was keeping up with trafic on I-5 and I-99) and still got about 16MPG out of it. The only thing I want to look into doing in the next few months before paint is streaching the pedab out abit. I am 6' and getting older and my legs don't like being bent for long periods of time. What I would like to do it two fold, first move the brake and gass pedal about 3" tward the fire wall for more leg room and second is have a nice bench seat built that is only about half as thick in the back as the stock seat. This will give me 6" of extra leg room and should make a world of differance in driving commfort.
