I am getting 21 1/2 AVERAGE mpg driving around town , and that’s with idling for 15-20 mins before I leave the driveway.
It will pull 28-31 mpg on the hwy! My 2007 with the Active fuel managment (8 cylinders shut down to 4 ) I got a average of 14 1/2 mpg with Idling , and about 15 1/2-16 mpg without Idling. the sierra would get maybe 19-20 at best on the hwy.
long story short , the new ecodiesel gets 50% better fuel economy.. and Diesel and gas are the same price right now by me @ 1.99 a gallon.
love it so far , I will post back over the years , if it gives me troubles.
oh ya , my old sierra put out 365 ft pounds of torque at around 3500 rpms
the new diesel puts out 420 ft pounds of torque at 2000 rpms:icon_ goofy: should pull the toy hauler quite nicely..
