Hauled this trailer 400 miles round trip for a whopping 10 mpg. Thank goodness my church was paying for the gas.

I average 10 mpg all the time with my tahoe it's an 01 with the 5.3 4wd with 250k miles. Is that normal? Haha

If that's all city that's about right my 6.0 Esky gets 10ish in the city on the highway/back roads I get 14.5-15 the instant gas mileage on the DIC helps you see what effects the gas mileage

Today I took the Tahoe and had a Flowmaster Series 40 exhaust put it and love the sound!!

Also took her to my Buddy's tint shop and had the front windows tinted

Ohh and changed out the interior dome lights to LEDs... Will be getting some LEDs for the door lights, front map lights and the license plate lights this week..

Manually calculated, I'd say 60% city driving. I usually average between 13 and 14mpg. All hwy is 17-18, my work gives me $75mo gas allowance and I do 1000 miles a month in the Yukon so I really only spend $75-80/mo in gas.

Yea I calculated my mpg for about 9 months and I get about 200 miles per fill up which is always right around 19-21 gallons so right around 10 mpg. Unless I do all highway then I can get about 14-15 mpg

I have cleaned throttle body, fuel rail, injectors, intake, replaced coolant, radiator, new oil I'm hoping new plugs a d wires can get me 1-2 more but I doubt it.

I just try to stay under 2k rpm if I don't need to get anywhere soon

Got new caliper for the rear. Now all 4 corners are new. Coated ones like the fronts. It seems like powder coat. Pics will follow

Gave her a much needed day off. She sat in the driveway, while my wife and I went ******* in our '00 Wrangler. 93 degrees, took a 40 mile drive to the mall and a few other stops, then meandered back home. After about 94 miles, got the Wrangler home and put the top back on before the rains start.
