My dad's truck is a 2500 with a utility bed and a tommy lift on the back. It's got the 350 TBI. It weighs 6500 pounds with nothing in the bed and for most of the past tank there's been an air conditioner in the back of it. It got 11.7 mpg.
My 2 Door Hoe got 11.2 mpg, and it has the Vortec and weighs 5000 pounds, if that. I didn't punch it all that much, but shouldn't it get at least what the 2500 got?
And his truck has 100,000 more miles than the Tahoe. Does the TBI actually get much better mileage? Also he has 245 tires, and I've got 265s, but they shouldn't make that big of a difference. If his truck weighs a whole ton more than mine, I feel like I should get better mileage than him.
