Real Life MPG 5.3 / 6.2

[SSGUNNER]

Show me pics of a 26 mpg average tankful, or better yet an average over two or three tank fulls (because that is more real world), and i will send you my next months bonus.

Just came back a few days ago on my spring break vaca and here are my results from SoCal to Utah. About a 800 mile round trip filling up with about 3 full tanks at $95.00

Pretty impressed with this tank of a ride, either way if i get much less than 14mpg I would still care less about gas prices because I never considered gas prices when i made my purchase. Now city driving is a lot worse as anyone can imagine.

Again…those 50 mile average numbers are feasible when floating down the freeway….but they really don't mean diddly squat.

We just went to florida and back (few thousand miles) and got low teens.

Yep! Haaaaaa.

The tahoe was loaded down heavy with a weeks full of luggage for four, a heavy bike rack with 4 bikes, xl thule on the roof full of stuff…and it was windy as all get out while cruising down the freeway at 75-85. I sure didnt expect very good mileage, but it was a little worse than i was expecting.

Brand new High Country 6.2, only 200 miles so far, driven mostly suburban and highway. High is 19mpg and average is 15mpg. Probably on the low side because I’ve put my foot into it quite a bit playing around with it.

The average and best mileage are both 28.3? That makes no sense.

2021 Yukon SLT, 20" wheels with the 5.3, 4x4, and have 5,900 on it. Overall average is 17.5 for us according to the computer. Its as good as our 2011 Honda Pilot with a 3.5 L six-cyl.

I have the 5.3. Ive had the 6.2 in my Camaro SS and well its a meh powertrain.

Pretty happy with my first 5.3 coming from mopar and the 6.4 and 5.7 but those vehicles are much smaller. Im curious how the G Wagoneer with the 6.4 is holding up with mpg?
