Just curious what you lifted guys are getting for MPGs? I plan on getting a 2008 or so Tahoe and going with a 6" and 35s, but do not want the MPGs my truck gets. I have a lifted truck already that I plan on selling to get the Hoe. The truck is a 1500, 12" lift, 37s, 6.0 swap, Yank stall, Level 5 trans, 4.88 gears and I get 10 MPGs without my trailer and 7.5 MPGs with my trailer. I also DD my truck ~35k/ year for work with my trailer hooked up.

mines listed in my sig and its still got stock 3.73's but i've got a bb 93 oct tune with full bolt ons. average about 13.5-15mpg depending on how much skinny pedal i use and how much highway driving i do and how fast. 15's and 16's if lots of highway driving no faster than 65. i don't tow much but the few things i have towed well.

I have an '07 Z71. I went with a small kit (ReadyLift SST; 3" rear, 4" front) with 33" Toyo Open Country M/T's. Mileage went from 15.5 to 14.5 mpg.
