19mpg in a van

the k&n gives better breathing but at the expense of more dirt in the engine because of larger holes in the filtering media. no good for the cylinder walls.

I've used K&N for years in my vans,cars and bikes, They say the wet filters better than the dry paper, and I've had no problems.

didn't make 19 mpg but got up to 18.5 and 18.4 in this recent trip from minne to ny state. 19 is there but maybe easier with the 3:73 rather than the 4:10 rear end. 18 is at a steady 60 and better is gonna be painfully slow.

At 60mph on fairly level roads my 2008 Chevrolet 3500 Ext was able to average 19 mpg and occasionally I got 19.5.
