Just thought I'd share some MPG numbers for the last 10 days. I've put about 1600 miles on my 2006 RTS traveling to Ohio, Alabama and back to the dreaded ATL.

Two tanks ran about 21.5 MPG, two about 21 MPG and the current one will go down due to city driving.

I don't drive slow, some of this was at 70-80 and most all know by now that you can't really use cruise control today due to the interstates being full of people and most of them doing 8 mph under the speed limit in the left lanes.

My truck currently has 11,500 or so miles on it.

These are the kind of posts that make me want to respond to those "enlarge your mileagehood" or "your wallet will love you more than ever" emails in my junk filter. ;)
