I don't mean to threadjack here ...

But KLRv6 ... can you do me a favor and start a post on your suburban?
I am having some trouble swallowing the numbers it produced ...

Your vehicle, has no cd listed, weighs 1000 lbs more than my V8 4-runner, is infinately larger, has double the tank capasity, you drive it way faster and get 6mpg higher average than epa? I want to know what you have done to possibly recreate it with the 4-runner to get it past 22mpg, which is only a 3mpg improvement over epa.

Thanks ...
