Gas mileage?

[FoxMulder88]

hello, i'm new here. i've heard a lot on these threads about the great gas mileage the colorado with the I5 gets? Could anyone tell me what gas mileage you get in real life with a 4x4 colorado? Also, how good are these trucks in snow? Thanks.

Guys there is no one out there that has more miles on 2004 colorado than I do. I have 127,000 miles on 4x4 with I5 motor I get 23.5 high way and 19 city and 20.5 combined. These are the facts people!!!

I'm going to bump this to get some more present updates on mileage.

Can some more of you folks jump in on your mileage with the 3.7L I5?

Thanks,

I had a 2005 Crew 4X4 Z71 with 3.5L I5, 4.10 axle ratio.
I normally would get about 20mpg and 23 on highway trips, 17.5mpg was my very worst tank (not towing).
The truck was bullet proof and I towed a boat that weighed 5,000lbs without any trouble and returned 15+mpg.
It also was also very competent off-road and in the snow although I was not a big fan of the OEM General tires.
