Some folks were interested in the mileage I got in the Silverado with the Duramax diesel engine.
This past week I drove it to Winston-Salem, NC, and back, a distance of about 650 miles. This time I
wasn't towing anything. The truck got 21.6 mpg for the whole trip. Not bad. I was surprised. Shoot,
that's as good as I was getting in the 4Runner.


Not bad at all.

What ever happened to diesel costing less than regular unleaded? From
what I've read, there is less money spent to refine it so it must be a
political thing.
