Yep. I’m feelin pretty good about my Goshzilla. Got fuel for $2.75 a gallon at Walmart today.
One of the South Jordan Walmarts had a gas station put in. That was a surprise to me. When did Walmart get in the gasoline game?

Curious where you're getting that value from... The NYMEX futures are trading at $2.1895 not including freight and tax. The lowest wholesale price in SLC is $2.2617 not including freight and 50 cents in tax.but they should be about $1.75/gal.
I'm not sure I can remember the last time I saw a full size Walmart that didn't have a gas station. Is this one of the little neighborhood grocery Walmarts?One of the South Jordan Walmarts had a gas station put in. That was a surprise to me. When did Walmart get in the gasoline game?
That would make sense considering Walmart+ gets you a discount at Murphy stations. They also expanded the discount to Exxon stations a while back.Walmart uses some kind of vendor like Murphy’s to run their fuel stations. They’ve had them for a long time in some places (more than 15 years) but are pushing to get them installed in as many places as possible.
The Walmart + program gives you 10 cents off per gallon at all WM fuel stations. The advertised price this morning at my local store is $2.85. All WM Associates get a free Walmart + account as a benefit. Managers have to pay for Walmart +.
Was this yesterday? I was driving home from Mesquite in the sprinter in that wind. My knuckles are sore today from trying to keep us from flipping over 😬Climbing to Cedar with the most hellacious headwind I’ve ever had makes my wallet hurt

It's a good day when I see anything over 7mpg in my 6.2. If I keep it under 65, with a tail wind, maybe 8mpg.
We did a trip to St George in the wind, could hardly hit 60-65 mph, and saw less than 4mpg.
The narrower tire is a lot less rolling resistance.How do you get such poor mileage?
Maybe you need a tune up? Or does it have lower gears than mine?
I text you what I got the other day.
My 6.2 got 12.768 mpg towing my 6x12 square box trailer full of bikes 80 mph to Lynndyl and back, then empty to Spanish fork and back home with a trailer 80mph.
My truck usually gets 11-12 everywhere. Loaded, unloaded, trailer no trailer, it'll get 13 or 14 IF I stay under 65 but only on the highway.
I did put a slightly smaller, narrower, smoother tire on 2 weeks ago.
By my hand calculations I've been getting about a 1mpg improvement.
It was cheaper to get 20" King Ranch wheels with new 275/65r20 Cooper Discovery AT3s than another set of new 325/65r18 Goodyear Territory MTs.
They are not a bad looking factory Ford wheel IMO.
