Replying to: nosbor77 (Nov 15, 2006 3:47 pm) AFM What a sad thing for GM. When a great company like GM is showing a $6.5 billion dollar R&D budget...and the AFM techno-bust is a research product they choose to advertise and go to market with...it's time for big changes. Apparently testing was not done to confirm it's effectiveness or validity. I don't get it...   I would say the GM board of directors is asleep...and their senior management is moving the company in the wrong direction...yet again.   Toyota is taking market leadership...not so much as because they are competent...but moreso because GM is not competent.   GM's claims that they are playing on a not so level playing field against the "forenors" is not the way forward. Government intervention/protectionism won't git'er' done.   Winning in the marketplace will get 'er done. And you can't win there by misrepresenting your products' performance.   I like my Tahoe...but not the phony gas mileage claims that came with it.

Replying to: rspencer (Nov 15, 2006 8:58 am) Thanks for posting that link to the Consumers study. We had no idea that all that work was being done to test so many cars and trucks gas mileage.   There was a posting you made yesterday around 9:00 PM. It was there...and then it was gone. It referenced my message to someone on here a few weeks ago. What happened? Was it moved to another blog?

I did install a new magnaflow exhaust which should help, but no way is it going to see 21 mpg as quoted.   Did find out that there is a RECALL on the torque converter...   Overall happy with the car...

Replying to: rbb1 (Nov 18, 2006 7:00 pm) What's the recall for on the torque convertor? Replies to this message: rbb1 (Dec 01, 2006 6:00 pm)
#2099 of 3125 From disgruntled to pleased! by krim Nov 19, 2006 (3:04 pm)
Originally my mileage was terrible. Slow break-in combined with tire pressure around 28 cold instead of 32 (Left dealership under inflated). 2007, LTZ 4x4 with 32 lbs cold tire pressure (spec and watched).   The mileage keeps getting better and better. I now have over 7,000 miles. I usually drive 10% over the speed limit. Interstate driving at 82mph I average 20. At 75mph I average 21. At 65 I get 23. Around town I get 16. 4 cyl now comes on a LOT more often than the first 3,000 miles.   Typical multi-day trips are always in the 20+ range. Generally speaking, I get around 10% better gas mileage than my old 2003 4x4 Tahoe. Very pleased considering this is a 6,000 pound SUV! (700 pounds heavier than the Ford and better gas mileage. Go figure.)
