Washing it also makes it accelerate faster :deal:

00 NBS LS Tahoe, 19xk; I'm getting 15.6 city per last fillup. I haven't done a road trip since the Tune and fans, but without both I got 18 hwy cruising 80. I seem to get better gas mileage if I cruise above 70, maybe its the 3.42 gearing.

How do I figure out what gearing I have?
