MPG Problems 2k1 chevy silverado.. v6 4.3 automatic

Im having problems with my silverado single cab v6 vortek 4.3. About a year ago when i got the truck.. i was getting 17/18 in city.. and like 20/22 on freeway.. Now a year later.. im getting like 10/12 in city and like 15 or so on freeway.. WHAT IS GOING ON... i have replaced fuel filter.. i have cleaned the KNN air filter.. i have kept up with oil changed.. i have used fuel injector cleaners.. used octane boosters once in a blew moon.. that stuff from lucas most of the time. The only thing i havnt done is changed plugs. A friend of mine thinks its a vacum leak.. but nothing visable.. and i cant hear anything.. Any ideas guys.? if not can you suggest a site with a forum for newer trucks?? thanks in advance..
Matt
