Shooo weeeee a 3/4 ton Suburban.* And a 4x4 at that.* I got a '86 Silverado with a fiberglass topper that probably looks alot like that Surburban. It's a 1/2 ton 2wd.* With the 350 & 373 gears, it pulls fine.* right up to a gas pump.* I'll pay the bank over the oil tycoons.* Greedy SOB's.* Gas savings alone could make up the pmts depending on how long you plan to own something.* I'm with Greenblazer on the tire pressure. I just pumped mine up 10 extra psi & seen another 3mpg! that's on a light 4cly, but it'd be worth a try. I squeezed 18mpg out of my wife's Durango 4x4 with tire pressure change & driving technique when she can barely get 15, soooooo. Other then that, Naw, I better not say it.
