In my experience YES it works.
Pre-Volo : When I first got my truck I did a LOT of highway driving so I don't really know what my city numbers were, but I was getting 14-15 mpg's on with only a brush guard and stock size Michelin 255/55's.
----
After Volo : After install, I was getting 17-18 mpg's consistently, and maxed out at 19+ mpg's.
All of that has gone out the window with tires, winch, and rack

I see they got the fs1 on sale for $59, their fs3 is $89. I might give it a try once I get the plugs and wires and etc. all done.

Well, I finally sucked it up and did a COMPLETE (plugs,wires,air filter; cleaned- MAF, TB, IACV, and did induction cleaning) tune-up in this 20-ish degree weather we got.
After burning a half-tank w/seafoam, I filled up and measured 12-13mpg on it with about 95% city driving and 2 small off-road trips. This is while still running my 265/75's. Definitly alot better than the 9-10mpg I was getting.

When it's time for new tires, I am definitly goin down a size or two. They came on the truck when I bought it and are like new, so I hate to now.
Of course, maybe I'll re-gear and stick with this size.
