I got my best tank ever yesterday, tracked by Fuelly. I take a picture at every fill-up and then enter it into Fuelly.
Fuelly calculated 20.7 MPG over 589 miles, the EVIC shows 22.5 MPG. I could only squeeze in 28.5 gallons so I could have commuted for one more day:eek:
Not too shabby for a...
My Longhorn EVIC is usually about 10% off. Around town, my EVIC will say 22-23 MPG but I am getting 19-20. Highway I get about 18MPG.
I am driving about 550 miles per tank but still cannot get 29 gallons into it.
I am going to start driving farther on "empty", maybe drive 600 miles and...
I highly recommend installing Fuelly on the phone. Nice being able to chart over time. I get around 19 commuting in town and 17 on the highway.
My 16 Longhorn EVIC is inflating my #'s by about 10%. Last night the EVIC said 21.8 for the tank, actually it was 19.6!
I snap a pic of every...
This is my first pickup purchase and personally, I think I hit a home run. I had been driving luxury cars then SUV's but the luxury pickups kept catching my eye.
One test drive in my Longhorn was all it took, as long as some ******* doesn't take me out, I plan on keeping it a long, long time...
I thought the oil life indicator was just a 10,000 countdown? Is there a sensor in there determining something? Did mine at 4, 10, 16 & 22. I just want to keep it under 10K since I have the lifetime warranty.
First, as many have pointed out to buy a vehicle when most are trading out of the "new car" and have problems is ridiculous. When you buy an older vehicle it is a crap shoot, period.
Have fun with your next Chevy, I personally would never support a company that tried to cover up defects...
Does it make me sick that I was following a 1995? 4Runner that used to be red but was a uniform chalky color and I was daydreaming about using my DA and bringing it back to a magnificent shine?
Have you tracked your mileage? Put Fuelly on your phone and you will know exactly what your mileage is and can track it over time.
Drive it very conservatively, you can drive it and have fun and pay for it at the pump or you can drive like a grandpa and squeeze every mile out of each gallon...
Wow talk about scary, one thing to be thankful for is that it was unoccupied at the time of the fire. Have no ideas for you, but want to say thanks for sharing and hopefully it will get figured out.
I gotta hand it to you for your get er done attitude, but I would dump this turd and find another. Remember, that great deal is a great deal for a reason. Take your time and find a good used one or better yet if you can swing it buy an 18 and get a sweetheart deal while they are still around...
