Did something drastically change w/the 2010 Tahoe?

MSN says fuel went from 14/20 to 11/16 with the same engine

Also weight went from 5524 to 5894

Seems odd it would get fatter, as I am unaware of any new 400 lb subwoofers being added..?

I checked out the site that you posted up and the ratings that you are looking at for the 2010 are for the E85 ratings. The gasoline ratings are 15 city and 21 highway for the 2010 Chevrolet Tahoe 1500 2WD. I hope that answers your question.

Mine actually gets better mpg than my 2007 did on the hwy. Mainly cuz it actually does go into V4 mode at hwy speeds on level roads. My '07 didn't unless I had a tailwind.

I'm not buying the weight increase.

 

I'm sure MSN could have it wrong.

As for E85, that's a crock... and a whole 'nother thread...
