Please specify if you're driving a tahoe/yukon or suburban type truck. As the suburbans do have larger gas tanks than tahoes. Short wheelbase trucks (both 2 and 4 door) get a 26 (what GM calls 30) gallon capacity tank, while the suburbans received a 42 gallon tank.

I get around 250, all city, 26 gal tank.

unknown at this time.
2dr and 4dr alike are all supposed to be 30 gallon capacity but typically the usable capacity used by us is about 23-26 gallons before filling up because we see our gauges indicate low. Being raked effects how we see that gauge reading as well. As a result there could be a few last gallons that never make it to the engine when it is that low. the tank does not really have a collector sump to catch it as it moves around.

Best mpg I ever got with a full tank was 415, and I was babying the shit outta it. Normal driving city/hwy maybe 280 sometimes 300. Dam V8 is killing my pocket!!! :emotions122:

Guessin' I coulda' squeezed a few more miles/full tank then.
Even though.... I'm not complainin' about the mpg I got w/my setup. Hell, my neighbors got a 6cyl Jeep Cherokee, and he's only gettin' about 16mpg with a stock setup.
