    Lol no at the time it was on thetrailer it wouldn't idle. The 35 is a guess. I drove about 200 miles on 6 gallons so I'm not sure exactly what it gets since I have no speedo or gas gauge

    14.5 average, heavy foot. Frenchy, how the heck do you do that with the same power train as me? Or is that km?

    My Denali gets 13.5 with mostly city driving. That's with the wife driving it primarily, too, but she's almost as heavy footed as I am.

    The turbo 408 with 80e averages better than 14 MPG with my stupid driving style. It would probably get better fuel mileage with some tweaking of the tune. The 408 got about the same fuel mileage when it was in the 93 truck with nitrous, except at the track where you could watch the gas gauge drop after each pass down the track.
