Just got back from our camping trip to West Texas, will post my MPG as soon as I get them added and averaged, here is a pic of the Tahoe at 6500 feet above sea level at the McDonald Observatory. My best average economy was 23 mpg...

I also rolled over my first 10K on this trip

cool picture's

 

got my numbers added up...

Our trip out was 447 miles with an average of 18.73mpg.

On the way back it was 514 miles,we went a senic route with an average of 20.8mpg.

Total trip was 961 miles, 69 gallons of gas at a total average of 19.76mpg. The posted speed limit is 80mph on I-10 in West Texas

I used the cruise control and that maintained the 75-80 miles per hour speed limit up hills. I think if I had used my foot and coasted up more hills and done 70mph only, I would have done better.

My highest mpg was 22.5 and lowest was 18.5 at fill up, considering its a 5000 pound truck loaded with camping gear and bicycles on the back the mileage was decent was hoping for a 1 or 2 more, if I had done 65-70mph I probalby would have gotten it.

Thanks for indulging my trip details
