I'm curious to see how you fare economy wise. I think the best I've seen in mine was on a road trip to Idaho where I did a whole tanks worth on the highway and got 12mpg. Lol. That's on a 34" tire with stock gears and no tune though.
What type of mounting system does your roof top ten have? Are you going to be building a rack for the top of the superburban? Can you build some sort of aerodynamics to the roof/tent/rack? Fast search on EBay showed lots of captain chairs available for the burb but mostly newer models. I know the front seats in the older style and up o the 2010 didn’t cross over but the center sections did. I have noted over the years the wider tire causes more weight. I never have had a logical reason to run a 12.50 tire but I do. I might suggest a more narrow tire for all the street driving this might see in the future. And than might be worth a change after your long road trip. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I don’t know how you feel about changing wheels but with the smaller lift you’re talking about a 285/75/17 might be worth a look. Prices in that size range are also not outrageous. I was happy with these Coopers in 285/70/17 on H2 wheels. https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Cooper&tireModel=Discoverer+AT3+XLT&partnum=875SR7DAXLT&vehicleSearch=false&fromCompare1=yesSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
For some reason I thought I read you were going to a less aggressive tire for your trip. BFG mud terrains come in that size. https://m.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=BFGoodrich&tireModel=Mud-Terrain+T%2FA+KM2&partnum=875QR7KM2RWLV2&vehicleSearch=false&fromCompare1=yesSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
