I have 13k miles and really haven't had any major problems other than the "normal" repairs; which I knew of prior to purchasing this truck (roof repaired and brakes repaired) other than those item I had virtually no problems.
My real concern is my gas mileage, it isn't even close to the 13-17 miles, I'm roughly running about 10-12mpg any suggestions to get better mileage would be helpful. I do mix driving, I JUST THINK I CAN GET BETTER MILEAGE.

Try a more free flowing air filter, I use the True Flow panel filter. Increase the air in your tires a little. Try starting off easier after stopping.

I got mostly 12 mpg at first but now with the new filter I am getting more like 13mpg.
I didnt get it for that but It seems to have made a little difference.
I also started to use the cruise control more on the freeway, it keeps me from speeding too much.
