I RRRREEEEEEEEEEAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYY dont want to sell my short 71. BUT i spun a bearing in the bbc so it has to come out to get fixed. i also am looking at a new job where i will need to be driving 100m minimum daily. there in lies the delema, i can sell my roller short fleet for a nice $$$ and get a toy or newer chevy [89-98] for the gas.

it has been suggested by a few freinds that if i
3.07
700r4
taller tire
the truck i should get around 15mpg, does this sound feasable or should i be coughing up smoke rings?

the reality is the difference of money, $2500 inbound or $1000 from my pocket, i have found quite a few possible new rides but i KNOW i will hate myself for ever if i sell the shorty.

i want to hear what yall think.
