Re: going to try and hypermile the Tahoe

I recently tried FE driving for the first time in my 99 Land Cruiser on two recent trips between Redwood City and Santa Maria, CA (480 miles roundtrip). EPA 13/16. Using DWL and some surfing my roundtrip highway segment average was 19.4mpg. Average speed was 60mph.

Re: going to try and hypermile the Tahoe

Well when we started the tank had about 11 miles on the tank which my wife had driven.
I had 179.1 miles on the tank when we came into this town that normally has gas about .10 cents cheaper than anywhere else on the drive We didn't need gas but I filled up because of the price and needed to stretch. 8.589 gal. of gas. 20.85 mpg. EPA is 19. Mainly did 55-58 mph and did some coasting when was avail. Not great but with a/c on and my first time trying to get better mpg with this hog I'm not complaining. Actually it's the best we've EVER gotten on it. Oh by the way gas in Austin was cheaper, oh well and cheaper than Houston by .30 a gal.kevin

Re: going to try and hypermile the Tahoe

wouldn't it be sweet if you were the first SUV on the block to get 30 mpg? Something you can host a party about!
