My gas guzzling daily driver Pickup gets a meer 10LPH highway...

Then again, it is equipped with a 4.3L V6 and an NV3500 5 speed standard, which helps.

My tow rig, with a 5.3L V8, 300 hp, and 325 ft lbs of torque, and an NV4500 5 speed gets about 13LPH, still very respectable considering the power it produces.

Both are sequentially fuel injected, and both beat the local emissions standards by a landslide.

Us here in Northern Alberta actually need trucks. Its not just cause we like driving big vehicles. We can sometimes get a foot or two of snow overnight, and there is not a chance that a car can drive through that crap until after the bigger trucks go through. We also have to haul our own water in, haul feed for the cattle, etc.

My tow rig used to have a 5.7L V8, with like 140 hp, and 200 ft lbs of torque, and got a miserable 24LPH, and polluted like crazy, thats why I upgraded to a brand new LS1 engine from a 2006 GMC half ton. Smile

Oh, and for you Americans, LPH = Litres Per Hundred. 10 LPH = about 24 MPG, 13 LPH = about 19 MPG, and 24 LPH = about 10 MPG
