My Silverado


Augusta, GA


Little Rock, AR


At my old apartment in Houston, TX

I love my truck. I move around all the time for work, so I'll keep posting pictures of places that I spend a lot of time in. Of course, they'll star my Silverado.

My goal is to get a picture of it from east coast states and on west coast states....but who knows....I may not get transfered that direction.

Re: My Silverado

I love your truck. I will be trading in my grand vitara for a silverado in a few months. I may have to go with that color as well, nice.

22-23 ish on the highway if I can keep it below 70. It improved from 19 when I got the tonneau cover. The key is to have the instant MPG display up...it keeps my foot from getting to heavy. Cruise control drops the mpg, so to get the best mileage you have to keep it in 4 cylinder mode a long time and that requires changes in pavement/grade, which cruise control doesn't do.

On those long drives I get impatent and end up speeding at 80mph+, when gas mileage drops to 18 or so. I did get about 23mpg on the drive between Odessa, TX to Little Rock, but I was rolling at about 65-70mph in the right lane....and that section of freeway people usually go around 80.
