Just bought a 2012 Silverado. I got the LS..it's all I could afford, back off. I'm pretty happy with it so far. The listed MPG is 19 on the highway. They said I would probably get better than 19. It looks like the LTs get a little better probably because of the 6 speed tranny compared to the 4 speed in the LS. Thoughts?

You should remove the "i got the LS" and this statement is gold.

I got a GMC Sierra Z-71 last year and I love it.

I have yet to get the rated mpg in any vehicle I've driven. Not even close actually. My truck supposedly gets 21 highway. I got 18-19 once, with cruise control on 70 on interstate for the entire tank. Supposed to get like 18 city, I can't get more than 13 or 14 around town.

Congrats man! I have a 2011 Silverado LT and it averages 14-15 in the city... I like it and didn't buy it for the gas mileage.

Mine is mostly interstate between work and home during the week so maybe that is why it is a bit more. The rest is some city and farm driving pulling shite on weekends and helping a friend out

I made it to and back from Toledo Bend with my 5th wheel last week on one tank. Could not believe it. Live in Ellic.

Damn. Not bad.
eta: I wasn't pulling anything but made it from Rayville to just south of Waco on one tank. Don't know how but it averaged 19-20mpg on that trip
