Um, sorry for not providing exact figures on the MPG I got with trucks I owned 3 and 4 years ago. Back then I figured it out by dividing the gas used in the 50 mile round trip commute to work I had at the time, and by figuring the amount of gas it took me for round trips to Savannah, GA from my home near Tampa. Maybe I was off a few MPG in my response. Both trucks got great MPG, that's what matters. I get great MPG in my Dakota too, because I drive sensibly, keep my truck maintained on or ahead of schedule and keep the the wheels balanced and in perfect alignment with the right air pressure and I prefer a manual transmission. I don't buy cheap gas either. I drove and took care of the Colorado's the same way and got great MPG. Sometimes I wondered if the gas gauges in the Colorado's were even working. It would take 2 round trips to the office for it to even move off of the full mark.
