NOTE:  The GM Credit card site and the reference to the mileage disclaimer about the 2007 Tahoe.

*** The 2007 Chevrolet Tahoe equipped with the Vortec 5300 V8 engine with flex fuel capability gets an EPA-estimated MPG 12 city, 16 highway, on 2WD models and MPG 11 city, 15 highway on 4X4 models when runninng on E85 fuel

Regarding the MotorTrend review, remember the reviewer noted that their REAL WORLD mileage results were 12 mpg, regardless of the GM mileage claims.



All I'm seeing is marketing, advertising, pretty green & yellow colors and NO ENGINEERING.

Thanks

When running on E85 fuel.  Explains.  In other places here it has been estimated that running E85 will result in 10 to 20 loss in fuel economy. 

And I thought that they were supposed to be using a more "Real World" estimate now.
