Default 2014 silverado real world mpg chime in
I am looking to pick up a truck soon and was wondering if I could get some owners to chime in on what they are getting realistically in their 2014 Silverados. I will be looking into the Z71 with 3.42's. Thanks for all the help.

did you recalibrate the speedo with the tire size change? Wider, taller tire?
