yeah 3.39 in town.
However given that I was getting 17 with the dakota, I would be getting get 52 pct better mileage at 45 pct higher fuel cost. Still somewhat ahead.
If I chip it I could get to 30 mpg
If I convert it to VO, after ROI of the setup, have a really good cost/benefit

That would be the trick. Do you think I would need a tank heater for the winter?
