• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

Gas mileage

Yes that’s a great number, I’m sure it had to do with the low engine revs going only 60. I get 27 going 70. So very pleased with the mpg.

Also, you get a thumbs up for taking your Telly to Telly!
 
Drove from Durango to Telluride in Eco mode. Round trip 250 miles. Elevation change 7500 ft to 6500 to 10,300 to 9000 and back. Car loaded with 4 large adults. Speed mostly 60 mph. Averaged 30.2 mpg!!!!
How many Tellys you saw there??
 
We did a trip from San Antonio to Tucson a couple weeks ago, averaged 26 and change doing 80-90 mph the whole way. The Telly cruises at 85 quite comfortable with minimal throttle...I was pretty happy with it.

Averaged 27.9 mpg from St. Louis to Chicago, going 70-75 mph with 4 adults, 2 kids, 1 large and 2 small luggage last weekend. If I account for local traffic in Chicago and St. Louis, it was about 25 mpg.
 
I got my LX AWD only last week and got more than 27 mpg on my first highway trip (and I like to drive...). Considering that it is rated at only 24 mpg, I was very excited!
 
I am averaging 23.9 all around per the truck calculator thru 900 miles. My calculated thru 2 tanks was a bit lower at 23.6, but still not bad for 2/3 city 1/3 highway. Overall very pleased.
