Replying to: macman246 (May 11, 2007 1:04 pm) As a mechanic, new cars need a break in period with last up to 1000 miles. I too, noticed that the milage I was getting was not par with stated results. However, a month later I was getting the milage I was expected. When I go on a 4 hour trip - there is no surprise that I an getting ~ 20 - 21 mpg - and yes,,,,,with the AC on and going 68 - 71 MGH. I know there were some concerns with some other 07 Tahoe owners regarding MPG....but I think it is a matter of driving habits. My wife is a heavy footer.......I check her mpg after I clear my out in the control center - and she gets an avg of 14.7..........vs my 16.7. Go figure.........

Replying to: gfraigun (May 13, 2007 7:23 pm) I ran the AC all the time, was not heavily loaded down - just my wife and I and a week's worth of luggage - and used cruise control set at about 65 - 70 mph about 65% of the time (while on the freeways -- I30, I40, I44, I55) through Arkansas and Missouri. Overall trip resulted in 18.8 MPG and I am a shade below 10,000 miles on the odometer now. Highest I saw was about 19.9, after the first two days which covered about 880 miles of steady highway (TX 59 from Houston to Texarkana and then Interstates to St. Louis.) The Tahoe performed beautifuylly and provided a great ride. Got several inquiries at various stops from strangers regarding the gas mileage and compliments on the Tahoe's appearance during the trip. Around home, if careful, I get about 15 MPG. |

Replying to: gfraigun (May 18, 2007 2:10 pm) This is from the Navigation Radio supplement manual, page 72 on MP3 CD's. They "recommend" a maximum of 192 files! "Maximum number of folders is 253 with a maximum hierarchy of eight folders. • Create a folder structure that makes it easy to find songs while driving. Organize songs by albums using one folder for each album. Each folder or album should contain 18 songs or less. • It is recommended that there is a maximum of 192 files on a disc." Post again if GM does indeed "fix" this issue. Good Luck, - Gregg Boston, Mass
