2003 chevy silverado 4x4 ext. cab 8 ft. bed with a 5.3 liter engine.
I average 16.2 mpg that's highway,city,beach,pulling my small boat, and pulling an enclosed trailer full of cabinets. I use it for sightseeing,work and fishing.I can only afford one truck and this one does it all. If I drive all highway, I'd get 18-19 easy if I stay at 65 or under.
34 gallon tank cost 100 bucks to fill

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

98 Chevy Minivan....Won't drive on beach, but is very suitable for Rhody Fishing. 25 MPG if I keep it at 70, goes to 20 when I need to drive in CT style traffic where either the gas or the brake pedal is on the floor at all times.......
