I have a tune/AFM delete and a few other updates. Pretty sure the loss is from the added weight for the 20s, they're about 30lbs per corner additional. My '17 crew cab lost 2.5mpg when I went with 20s and larger all terrain tires... I'm fine giving up a little efficiency to look back and smile...
I know, I miss the serenity and the snow activities. My wife is over the cold and darkness so we're seasonal now.
The antenna isn't communicating out per a Tech2... the GPS is all confused too. It's not leaking and I use Apple Car Play for maps so I'm not sweating it currently. I got 20.1 last...
Just drove across the continent... Georgia to Alaska. It cost me $850 last April in an 04 Suburban getting 13mpg and this year it was $1,100 in the 16 Suburban getting 18 mpg. Definitely putting a damper on things but it's still not the worst I've seen, Alaska was over $5/gal in 2011-2012.
We got my wife a new car so the burb is "mine" now... It's up to 148k miles and got a fresh transmission with some upgrades. I also added Bilstein 5100s on the first notch with 275/55R20 Toyo AT3s. Pretty happy with the look, taking off to head back to Alaska tomorrow!
Here is my 2004 4x4 Burb with white letters out, previous owner put on the Coopers and I have been impressed so far. They do well in the rain and are quiet... they're a little soft for my taste but I'm coming from E load range KO2s and like a stiffer ride.
Where are you located? I have done the swap several times over the years a few different ways, here's a couple quick thoughts:
1. eBay sellers with good feedback are a good starting point, there are several dismantlers that specialize in engine packages. This would net some security and...
Not a dumb question at all... I don't know 100% to be honest. The way I have always prepared for the tune is get all maintenance up to date (all 3 vehicles I've had done we're used) and install any short term mods I have planned. That way they can maximize everything and it all works together...
Yes, I got approved to work remotely in the off season at my company. I will be in Georgia (where I'm from originally) from Oct-Mar every year now... then back up to Alaska for the summer season.
