Not going to make a thread for it, but I'll likely start a gas long. Picked up my brand new (6 miles on the odometer) Chevy Express 2500 work van from the Chevy dealer this morning, courtesy of my new employer. Pics are taken with my new Google Pixel, also courtesy of my new employer.








EPA rating is 10 city / 12 combined / 15 highway, before the ladder rack (which I haven't finished installing yet).

The temperature was hovering around 25F and in Burlington and the tires and engine are brand new. I was averaging 12-14mpg in the city. On my way home, the van's display had creeped up to 20.5mpg before the last hill to my house, aiming for 50mph. I parked it with 19.5 on the display.

I'm not allowed to do any modifications to the van AND they pay for my gas, so I'm mostly going to be keeping track of my economy because it's something I enjoy doing.
