What? You must be lying! There's no way you can get that mpg at 75 mph, let alone with some stop and go thrown in! *sarcasm* :B

That's about 1-2 mpg less than I get at 65 mph.

I plan to drive and enjoy it. And yes i could have bought one for less money but my money stayed in the county i live in supporting the people i see everyday. I have a 2015 Chevy for a work truck and there are some distinct differences. Both are good trucks.

I predict you will love this truck, I have one and I love it. The interior, the handling and the ergonomics are all really first rate. This is a real truck. Mine has worked perfectly from day one. No issues after delivery.

Drive it, Enjoy it.

I envy guys like you. I can't buy a freaking toaster without researching it to death, but you can go out and buy a $40,000 truck and not even notice what model you bought.

You'll outlive me by 30 years.


Believe it or not, there are lots of buyers out there like this.
Nothing wrong with it, they only have to keep themselves happy.

However keep this post in mind when you hear the old story----

....I bought the exact same truck, RV, motorhome, whatever at dealer "X" and I saved $5000, $10,000, whatever over dealer "Y"

80 is max pressure for the tires, not 92 like mine had in it. I would have been ok if they had 80 as then i feel as though they had checked them.

My Dually came with around 80 in all six tires. I told the sales guy if I was just trying out the truck I would have walked.
