After 6 Months, Some Performance & Cost Numbers
Here’s an update for prospective Tahoe owners. I’ve kept track of some numbers since we got our LTZ 6 months ago:
- Total Miles: 13,044 (72 per day)
- Total MPG: 15.5 (Note: our mileage in June was 13.8. We put the K&N Intake on on July 3rd; since then, our mileage has been around 15.6)
- Total Gas Used: 843 gallons
-- Gas cost (regular): $2,314
-- Cost / mile: $0.18 ($1 every 5.6 miles)
- Total Engine Hours: 407
- Avg Speed (13,044 Miles / 407 Hours): 32
- Oil life info:
-- Oil Used: Mobil 1 Synthetic 5w30 (1st changed at 1,800 miles)
-- Last Oil Change: 10,110 miles
-- Miles since last change: 2,934
-- Oil Life Remaining: 64%
-- Estimated total miles: 8,150
-- Estimated miles remaining: 5,216
Hope this helps!

This definitely helps! Which K & N filter did you use? I'm only getting 13.9, and a LOT WORSE in 4wd, and will upgrade to a K & N as well.
