At 5000 miles, I'm averaging 15.2 combined.   Pure highway, minding a 65mph max, I get 19 (flat road). In the hills here in Tahoe, about 16.5.   Pure round-town with no more than 45mph, and no more than 1/2 mile between stop signs or round-abouts, about 10.5.   Dave
#1348 of 3125 Trying to decide if I should buy 2007 Tahoe! by ekcjwc Jul 11, 2006 (8:23 am)
I currently have a 04 Honda Pilot. I love the looks of the Tahoe but am a little concerned about the size and gas mileage. My Honda gets 20.5 MPG around town and 24 on the highway. Would love to hear your thoughts about the 07 Tahoe! Thanks! Replies to this message: samk17 (Jul 11, 2006 10:14 am) stormin800 (Jul 12, 2006 5:31 am)
#1349 of 3125 CLOCK DISAPPEARED by samk17 Jul 11, 2006 (10:06 am)
I have a 07 LTZ w/ navigation. I was driving to work this morning and noticed that the digital clock was missing. So I flipped through all the manuals, called my dealer, and called Chevy... but found no answers. Anyone have a similar problem? Replies to this message: shawnhackett (Jul 12, 2006 5:47 am)

Replying to: dsquare (Jul 09, 2006 5:58 pm) My 07 4wd LTZ is getting 12.5 MPG Which sucks ___________________________________________________________ Your LTZ has full-time 4 wheel drive and as I recall you have the bigger 6.0 V-8 and the 3.73 rear axle. With the 20" rims and wide tires your mpg will be much less than the LS and LT models with the 5.3 V-8. My 2006 has the 5.3 engine, 3.42 rear axle and 16" wheels. At 65 mph I am getting 22mpg. At 60 mph I get 23mpg. City driving is around 18 mpg. This is in 2 wheel drive, AC not on, and no stop lite drag racing.
#1352 of 3125 Aftermarket NAV Unit by 1atom12 Jul 11, 2006 (2:47 pm)
Are the stock head units double din? I have an Eclipse double din NAV unit in my current vehicle, will this unit fit in the 2007 Tahoe? If so, does anyone make a double din mounting kit? Are there any adaptors for the CAN bus for Onstar/Steering wheel controls/door chimes?   I should be getting my Tahoe in the next few weeks, just want to be prepared for the swap, if it's possible...

LTZ can be had in 2 wheel drive and 4 wheel drive. It is not full time all wheel drive, that is Denali and Escalade only. The motor is not a 6.0 motor unless it is a 3/4 ton Suburban, Tahoe and 1/2 Ton Suburban get 5.3L. Full time 4 wheel drive is only on Denali and Escalade with a 6.2L motor.

Replying to: ekcjwc (Jul 11, 2006 8:23 am) Obviously, you are looking at a totally different vehicle. If size and MPG are causing apprehension, you should look into a smaller SUV. I have the GMC 07 Yukon SLT-2 which is the same vehicle as the Tahoe LT3 with a few more options. I love the ride, room and towing capacity.   I have approximately 3800 miles of mixed driving (including towing boats,snowmobiles and utility trailer) and I am averaging 16.1 MPG year to date. I have validated accuracy of MPG by using a calculator at fill ups.   As we all know, Honda has a outstanding reputation for reliability etc. I was a toyota SUV and truck owner for the last 14 years, so it was hard for me to leep from the security of reliability and minimal depreciation of toyota to GM, but I am totally pleased to date with my Yukon. I am also very pleased with fit and finish. Zero issues to date   I am willing to be a ginnea pig for this first year model makeover for reliability and depreciation and I do not think I will be dissappointed. Good luck in your search.

Replying to: samk17 (Jul 11, 2006 10:06 am) I have the same problem with the clock. I noticed that the clock would disappear sometimes when I had an MP3 CD in the player.   Apparently, the player is using more memory evaluating the 100+ songs on the CD, so the clock doesn't load when you startup.   I have no idea why it can't load the clock, but once I remove the CD, get out of the vehicle and let the player re-set. Once I startup the next time, the clock re-appears and stays on as long as I keep the MP3 CD out of the player.   It doesn't disappear all the time. But I have learned to expect it when playing an MP3 CD.   Let me know if this solves the problem for you too. GM will hopefully get a software fix for it later if it happens to alot of people.
