    Default Noob with Silverado

    I just bought a new 2008 SIlverado 1500 Extended Cab 4x4 6.0 liter in February. It is Summit White w/ an ebony interior. It already has 7300 miles on it. It is my third Chevy truck and about my 10th or so GM vehicle (mostly Pontiacs & Oldsmobiles).

    I'm getting about 13 - 15 around town and about 16 - 18 on the highway, but that is not necessarily representative of what this truck should get because I drive with a very heavy foot. Plus, I have the factory Cargo Management System tool boxes and they are full of tools.

    I'll take some pics and post them.
