Gas mileage in your Avalanche?
Just curious as to the gas mileage that people are getting in their Avalanche.

My '03 gets about 9 mpg according to actually computing it. I don't drive it much these days.
Gas mileage acutllay can change dramatically depending on how you drive and what you do with your vehicle. Someone who punches it off the line and hauls stuff all the time will see very low mileage. Driving as if you have a cup of coffee on the dash that's about to spill will help dramatically with the mileage.
Typically we see between 15-18mpg normal driving and 10-11mpg when towing.
Don't use the DIC [Driver Information Center] as they've been found to off by 10% ... In my '03 Z71 w/20"s and 4:10's in the rear I was getting 13.7 in town and just over 17 MPG's on the highway w/the cruise set.My '03 gets about 9 mpg according to actually computing it. I don't drive it much these days.
Interesting to see what the gas mileage will be for the 2008 model.

Run to Las Vegas from Los Angeles 281 miles exactly; took just over half a tank of gas; averaged 16mpg @ 80mph cruise control.
Stop-and-go driving around El A averages 13mpg in V8 mode; 20 in V4 mode (coasting or going very slow).

Not Good!!!!!
I get 11 city and 13 highway. I did some reasearch and with mods I can get about 1 to 2 more MPG's. But mods are for power and torque not for MPG's.
