11mpg? 2001 4x4 Quad Cab, short box, leveled

wassup with that?

had a really gummed up old air filter on it, getting 13~14 around town,

disconnected the battery overnight (twice)
put on a AirAir intake on it with a MBRP 4 inch exhaust, and took a drive today, got ~11MPG @ 70mph @ 2k RPM.
3:55 gears

LT295/60-20, prolly 3 inch leveling kit?

Edit: dug back thru receipts, and I think was a case of the Pump "cutting off" at the max value/amount, and the math made it come out to 11mpg

doing 15mpg if I fill it up completely.
