I have the Duramax listed in my signature. It is a late 2006 model and has the LBZ engine which seems to be the one everyone wants. Who knew when I bought it however. I currently have 152,000 on the odo.
I get 12 mpg +/- 0.5 mpg towing the fifth wheel in my sig. I know some will dispute that mileage, but I am a very and I mean very non-aggressive driver. Very moderate power when starting from a dead stop or accelerating and I NEVER tow faster than 60 - not ever.
My motto "I'll get there". I'm retired, what's the hurry.
