Hey!

I filled up yesterday and figured my mileage! My combined mileage for the run to Lynx Lake and around town this week was over 16 mpg! proper tire pressure, and backing off the speed, what a difference!

We just got back from Nevada, 27.69 MPG. That's what driving a Chevy does for you.

more benefits of filling a gas rig at half a tank is your pump is always covered in fuel and stays cooler and last longer.
