Hello all, As you can see from my subject line, I'm contemplating making a change from my 2005 GMC Yukon XL Denali to a 2004 Chevy Suburban (2500). I'm looking for some real world comparisons ...

...I'm still getting used to it honestly. I think I was more "in tune" with my Denali than I thought I was. Gas mileage is predictably pretty bad so far. I think I'm just a shade under 11mpg. That's both in town and at least one super high speed highway drive to the airport.
I think the big clincher for this new rig will be the first time I load up both the burb and the camper and go on a trip.
That is the beautiful thing about the 8.1. It pretty much gets that mileage for city or super high speed driving. I could count every tank to average 11.
However, if you find time and a extremely long and consisent drive at 55 mph, you will be amazed.
