Per Trip Average Speed versus Engine Hours is the equation to understand. You don’t.
A Tahoe is a fairly useless trucklet. No bed and no significant storage space or payload capacity that can be used by solo driver. Thus, a Mommy Van. Softball Daddy-mobile  . No practicality.
The small Ford Transit van whups it in every practical way.
