Not as important for mpg as driving 100mph

That would depend on the ply of your big A/T tires. If you overinflate them, they will wear prematurely in the middle and ride like shite.

35 PSI for a half ton truck. Any more than that and those big tires ride like shite.

With all that money you save on gas, you'll be able to afford the spine surgery down the road.

This ^ many people never notice the VIN and tire and loading stickers on the door jamb. YOur brain is so used to seeing it that it never registers.

This is the answer if you are on stock size tires. They tell you what tire pressure to run to make the suspension perform the best.
