2011	4dr SUT 320-horsepower 5.3L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic 4WD	what fuel economy? bought it to pull a Brenderup horse trailer (3300lbs including 1 horse) that can be pulled with a 4cyl car in europe.... doing 22l/100km on flat roads with light foot. more than double combined rating ....GM unresponsive! see full Chevrolet Avalanche review
2007	4dr SUT 320-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic RWD	14MPG in the city sucks. see full Chevrolet Avalanche review
2007	4dr SUT 320-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic 4WD w/low range	It only averages around 14 to 15 in a mostly city driving environment. Was hoping the V4 mode would kick in more often to help improve the economy. see full Chevrolet Avalanche review

2009	4dr Sedan 361-horsepower 6.0L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD	Not bad mileage figures given the size of the car and the beast of an engine, but this is not a car for the hybrid set. see full Pontiac G8 review
2009	4dr Sedan 361-horsepower 6.0L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD	Is very low in stop-and-go traffic. Gets better with time, I understand. see full Pontiac G8 review
