I have a 5.3 -327 V-8 in my 2006 silverado and I am about to take it on a 5500 mile trip . I plan on writing down mileage , fuel intake and also different octanes to have a little fun checking out what I will get on the open road for gas mileage and performance.. I have a 4 wheel drive so we will see what I can get with it..

I was told that the 06 was a Big difference in gas milieage and the 07 was even better as for getting these trucks up to a good gas mileage running competing truck with others . I know one thing and that is this 06 beats the heck out of my 92 350 4/4 I use to have for mileage .

Check back at the end of March some time for results ,,gopapa
