I know the 6.2 L is not made for MPG. I may be shopping for a new/used truck later this year, and for those with the 6.2 L in 1/2 ton, what kind of MPG are you seeing? I am curious as to how close real-world numbers are compared to the 5.3 L

The question is, are you going to keep it completely stock. I saw over 21 mpg on the highway when mine was on factory tires and height.... I have 34’s and a 3” lift and still can avg 17.5-18 on the hwy. Your driving style is going to dictate the mileage more than anything.... Kind of hard to keep your foot out of it

It’ll do way better than you’ll likely allow.
My wife’s does great on the highway. Usually anywhere between 19 and 25 (@ 75), depending on wind and terrain (25 easily in the flatness of the Permian Basin). It’ll do better than 18 around town if you’re easy on it. 16.9 mpg overall average from the first fill up thru today.
It’s WAY too much fun to drive to be easy on it. Super unleaded is pricey, but that’s the price you pay to drive a pickup that’ll outrun half the sports cars out there.

I am interested in this as I hear that Tahoe RST is pretty spiffy.
