I wondered cause my OEM tires had a max of 40psi but when I had them in for rotation the shop guy said 29 psi. So I need to add a few PSIs tonight.

Thanks for that infomation....I need to check my psi....My tires max out at 44 PSI.
Im leaning towards the defroster as the culprit.
I have always only used synth oil as well.

Also have your front end alignment checked.
BTW, I'd try running at 34-36 psi for a while first. IMHO 40-44 psi is higher than I'm comfortable with. IMHO

I've always experienced poorer mileage in the winter months...currently getting about 210-220 miles per tank.(until the light comes on)
I always let it warm up for about five minutes before I roll, so that doesn't help.
I'm currently running 45-50 psi in my Terra Grapplers, & run about 60 psi for highway use in my Mud Grapplers. I like to go on the high side for less rolling resistance, but admit that's a little higher than most would use.

Im more of a fan of maxing out the PSI's too. Im going to try to roll around town with a little less for a day to two this weekend and see how that works.
I get about the same 210-220 and the light shows up ....then I fill up about 19 gallons or a little more.

When does your light come on? I have put 20 gal in and have not seen the light!Originally Posted by JHarris1385
I've only had my VX for a couple of weeks though. It could be burnt out I guess.

Heck, I'm punch for high 200's, low 300's, put almost 19gal in and haven't seen the light yet. (Thought here: Maybe I need to check the the light tomorrow morning at lamp test when I start to work.....hmmmm) Got 20mpg once, stays around 17 to 19, just like to book said. (Though I am keeping an I on my oil now.)
