For the last three years and 30,000 miles, I've averaged slightly over 35 MPG. If I lived in a warmer climate, that average would about 37 to 38 MPG.
The truck has comfortable seating for 5 adults, and I use it as a truck just often enough to justify a truck. I had a car and trailer at one time, and a truck just works better for me.
The truck I really want is slightly smaller, has better aerodynamics, the engine and six speed manual from the new Colorado, and properly done start/stop. With a rig like that, I would be close to or at 40 MPG.
