It really is easy Shawn, but remember, you're not driving an economy car. That big V8 is having to drink a lot of gas just to fill the cylinders properly. And, you need that big V8 to move all that iron - these are not "light weight" trucks.
You're actually getting pretty good gas mileage already. I get about 15.5 at 70-75 with my 4x4 Screw, and it's carrying a 200#+ bed cap. I can get 16.5 mpg at around 65 mph.
There's no way though, that you're going to get more than about a 2mpg increase. The laws of physics are against you here.
