Thinking about lifting my 5th gen sport, had some questions about fuel economy

I bought a 2020 Sport back in September, and I've been incredibly happy with it. However, I came from a levelled 2012 3500 with 35's and I loved the look and having the extra ground clearanc appvalley e. That said, my 2012 had a Cummins and the 35's weren't a whole lot of extra work for 950 lb/ft of torque so my mileage didn't really change.
I've been playing with the idea of a 3.5" lift and 35's for this 1500, but with the 5.7 and the 3.92 rear end I already get roughly 13.5 L/100km (18 or so mpg) and I've been wondering if anybody here has some insight on fuel numbers for one of these lifted half tons.

I basically have the setup you're looking at and you will drop about 2-3 mpg. Price you pay for better looking ride.
