I have two of these on automatics in a 2004 and 2005 Chevrolet cabovers. They both have landscape beds and around 120k. The one with the shorter bed gets 11mpg and the one with a longer bed gets 19mpg. They both are in city driving with the higher mpg one in less stop and go.

All my other crews with 4x4 GM gas trucks with 22' cargo trailers get 6-7mpg. That's a bummer
