Way to get false props TaHoE.

I think congrats should go to someone else:

Great looking vehicle. Mrs. TaHoE. Congrats. Don't forget to make him beg.

I have to say, she's pretty good about letting me drive it. She loves this car so far, fuel mileage is pretty average (22MPG), surprising though since my car is a 2002 with a 4 Speed Auto and gets 24MPG. Perhaps the engine needs to be broken into. We were looking for something more fuel efficient than the VUE then we end up getting a 3.6L V6...haha, dunno how that happened.

Hopefully I can make the same mistake when we "downsize" from the wagon

Haha, yeah we love it so far...she's a little worried about the mileage that we're getting (21.4) right now. But it might be a combination of my lead foot and the fact that the car hasn't been broken in yet (so far we have 1,000 miles on it). In comparison, my Aurora 3.5 with 65K miles gets about 23MPG average right now.

My wagon gets 22 ish mpg when Mrs. mak drives and around 19 when I drive, but it's nothing to do with driving style. I have a size 13 foot vs. mrs. maks 6. It's gravity man. Don't fight it.

That's the best excuse I've heard yet........

Tahoe, if her feet are bigger, maybe you can try that line on her??
