driving style: not to hard and not too soft (get in it hard every now and then)
gears: 3.73's
48RE auto
Mileage:

Just finished a 2500 mile road trip with a variety of driving conditions and averaged 20.4 hand calculated. Of course driving habits make a difference. I am also convinced there is variation in similar vehicles.
