Default Re: What kind of mileage are you getting?

Just Purchased a 2007 H2 last week, and already have 1,200 miles on it.
My last fill up, I got 18.6 mpg.
There was a post on here a few weeks ago about how if you drive 55mph you can get a 42% increase in fuel economy and that is DEF. TRUE!
Everytime I get on the interstate I put my cruise control on @ 55mph, and when I am going down the side roads (country roads) I run around 43mph so that its in overdrive and only churning about 1,100---1,200rpms.
Before I got my 07 H2, I had a 07 Escalade ESV as a demo with the new 6.2 Liter V8, and I was able to get 24 miles per gallon with it
filling up at a Shell Station, getting on the interstate and putting my cruise control on at 55mph and running a 60 mile stretch, and returning to the same shell station to top off with fuel to get a accurate reading.
So my prediction on the 08 Hummer H2 with the 6.2 will be 22---24mpg ((if you drive 55---60mph with the cruise control on))

Another factor is...........it all depends on "where you live" because every city and state is different. If you live in a area that has alot of "hills/mountains/steep grades" its only natural your not gonna get that great of fuel economy.
Getting 18.6 mpg out of my H2 is NOT easy, and truthfully its kinda frustrating going 55mph, but considering payments are $1200 a month, and gas is $3 a gallon.....its worth going a little slower to gain the extra miles per gallon. You really have to drive it like you have a egg under your gas pedal, and truthfully if i lived in a downtown area/big city, then there is NO WAY I could drive this way. Truth is, if you drive slow in a big city, your gonna get run over. You have to dart out into traffic, and stuff....but where I live, I am on 2 lane country roads most of the time and running 43mph on those roads churning 1,100---1,200rpms it only logic your gonna get pretty good gas mileage.
As for the Escalade I had as a demo.......I was able to get 24mpg and again, thats driving like you have a egg under your gas pedal, and 100% pure interstate running 55---60mph with the cruise control on.

In the real world.......living in Atlanta.....Chicago.....New York...big cities, its NO WAY of getting those kind of numbers.
It really narrows down to where you live, and what the roads are like.
I am sure people in Mississippi get better mpg than people who live in East Tennessee. East Tennessee is full of mountains, and hills, where as Mississippii is very flat.

Usually about 225 miles... yeah I know, it sucks.

Tim put a supercharger on his H2 and gets twice what I get. The only difference is I have 38's with 4.56 gears....

I give up. It is what it is.

Anyone try Gas savers or a velocity tuner, says it saves up to 31% on gas and adds 16% HP. Anyone care to comment?

Im trading in a 06 F150 Harley Davidson AWD with stock 22s and I was getting 11 on average and sometimes as low as 9 highest was like 13. So I figured if I was getting that kind of gas mileage why not drive a h2 and possibly get better or the same.

Default Re: What kind of mileage are you getting?

I took a trip last week that was 75 miles each way all highway......I reset the dash MPG display and set the cruise control at 65 mph. I got 14.7 mpg. On the way back, I reset everything again and set the cruise at 70 mph...I got 13.1 mpg. I was surprised how much of a difference 5 mph makes
