You sure you're not 85 years old instead of 25 years old? :D

lol, it was just to test my fuel efficiency.all the other times i drove 65-75. within six months i drove from texarkana to dallas atleast 10 times. texarkana to houston maybe 3 because i absoultely hate driving though all the towns on 59.and from texarkana to dallas to houston about 10 times.
a rough estimation , rest of the time was just around town and what not.

no less then 5k on fuel alone. 8 tire rotations, i believe 10 oil changes and with 45-50% of tread left before i wrecked her.

stock wheels 20" with stock tire size. I guess I'll just have to deal with it. Also no mods done yet. I bought it certified so I don't want to screw around with it till my warranty is up. That part is killing me more so. If my mpgs are going to suck anyways why not mod away.

Yea that's low for a burb considering the larger fuel tank. I have an avalanche which is on the same frame and I get 500+ mpg.

I'm getting 11.9 with the 6.2l. I had one other person and a few hundred pounds of stuff in the back on the highway going 75 from LA to Sacramento and the DIC said my mpg went DOWN. I wouldn't get too upset

Ha thats not bad. You can get a Black bear tune and it will bump it up some. Think thats disappointing, dont try E85. LAst time i got around 280 miles before i had to fill it again. Thats with 40 miles remaining according to the Dic

What are the Hybrid guys getting for a tank of gas?

Do a black bear tune for sure. Best mod you can get w/out going crazy imo. Helped me out going from 280-300mpg to 325-350
