Yeah, it should be a good one. Is there a 1 year warranty?

13.5 is pretty low for mileage. Even in the dead of winter with the truck doing a lot of idling and all city driving I'd still stay in the 15's. Mileage has improved with every tank since I've gotten the Smarty hax Check the air pressure on your tires.
