better than my envoy but not as good as advertised even with eco mode on 100% of the time and light foot, timing lights, etc. |

Not as advertised - trying to do all the right things (timing lights, light foot, no idling, tire pressure, etc.) but lower than what i thought i would get when compared to 17.6 for an envoy (15 city/ 21 hwy) with 200,000 miles and bad driving habits. |
