take notice to the shadow on the ground.... the mirrors cast a shadow, but the dually fenders do not.... you can tell there is no shading that would normally be at the rear wheels aswell, they are too brite... it's a fake

I have a 5500 4x4 and get 14 mpg empty at 50 mph when you go above that it drops quite a bit because its so low geared. They're made for commercial not daily drivers.

I kind of agree with shinkle, the shadow of the mirror is going towards the front of the truck, yet there is a hint of a shadow of something on the leading edge of the rear fender, coming from the opposite direction. After lookin at the site, the trucks are real, but this picture sure looks like a good photochop job....
