I bought a 2005 GMC Sierra Z71 short bed regular cab and am quite astonished that after six months of driving 70-75mph for over 80 miles a day I am averaging 17.4 MPG. Mind you I tow several thousand pounds of wood at least 1-2 times a week. When I got the truck it got 17.8 average.

Mine's a 5.3/4l60e combo....love it!
