I still have it. I listed it in the truck trader. I'm just bored of her. I don't need a 4 door cab and 6' box. I just watched the local news, and if fuel prices go as high as they say they will, I'll be buying a Tacoma V6. Just enough towing cap I need, and less fuel consumption. And they are real fast too!!

My new Tundra 5.7 gets 20mpg on the highway and around 15-16mpg in town.......

If I didn't need the towing capacity.....I'd have bought a Tacoma.

Thats great for a 5.7 with the power it has!

I guess a better question I should have asked to begine with is how many miles can a full tank get you in a 5.3 4X4 07 Chevy? I can get 500 km per tank in my Toyota now. Cost me $80.00 to fill her up.

Even the 5.3 half tons suck gas like crazy. They're all pigs. Those little 5.3's are pretty responsive though. As someone said, you can light the tires up all day long.
best ever,maybe he had a stiff tail wind on flat ground,Smitty
