I'm wondering if the 19's will change the MPG drastically, especially since it's a 3.0?

That's a good question. I can't truthfully answer that. Perhaps our fellow members can chime in?

I went from standard 17's to staggered 20's on 214's and did not notice
any difference in mileage. I am averaging about 19 with a 50/50 split town/highway

Interesting. Well I will definitely be on the lookout for some 18" or 19" wheels, but not until I get a trailer hitch and the house sorted out first. Will keep that in mind though, thanks!
