MPG Poll
#32
With a 50/50 combo of empty suburban and towing suburban, I average about 16-17mpg this time of year. 17-18mpg for the same in the summer. In the summer if I can keep her at 65mph on the highway, I get 20+mpg!!

I get 21.5-22 everyday. That's around 50/50 town (small town)/hwy. I get 23-24 on trips on the interstate @ 70mph. The truck is a SO 2wd with an auto and 3.73, so that's about as good as it gets. Also I've got 117k on it right now.

I didn't vote because I am anywhere from 18 - 22 mpg hand calculated with about equal city and highway empty. All highway keeping rpm at or below 2k I can sometimes squeek out a bit more. This is with the '05... and driving conservatively, which means my wife doesn't drive at all. She likes to squeal the tires through as many gears as possible . I must admit it is fun though

Yeah, just as soon as I hit the Lotto I'm gonna buy a 2WD (lighter than 4wd) 2500, CTD & 48RE (will have it built.....Lotto!) and spend a lot of time smokin' the meats out on the county road!

I get between low 15s to high 18s in town and in the low 19s to high 21s on the highway. All hand calculated and every time I fill up to the top of the filler neck thanks to the tank vent mod. MPG all depend on how people drive and the kind of driving. Towing my fifthwheel I get between 10 and 12. As a side note I don't get caught up in driving to get mpg. I just drive. Since I drive a bigger city percentage I went with the 15 to 19 vote because my highway figures are straight road trips with no stopping.
