Default cross country in 07 hummer adventure pkge

Well, I just got back from a 5500 mile round trip cross country, mostly on interstate 40. California to South Carolina & back. Hummer performed like a dream. Mileage varied from 16.5 to 19.1. I got 16.5 in heavy construction areas, country roads with lots of small towns, and/or high head winds. I got 18 and 19 on different stretches that I could cruise at 70 using my cruise control, ( Flagstaff Az to Amarillo Texas for example)One thingI found really strange on the trip is that in the whole 5500 mile trip I saw only 2 other Hummer 3s, and 3 Hummer 2s. ( except for locally in Southern California ) Made me wonder where all you folks are!

That's quite the trip! Can't speak for others, but you weren't in my neck of the woods. Guess most Hummer owners aren't cruising the Interstates!

If he had a stick, he wouldn't have cruise control, would he?

I took my H3 for a spin yesterday just to verify it's fuel economy... Usually I get 14.5 -15 MPG - 50/50 highway/streets and highways are usually congested. Yesterday I got 18.98MPG with 90/10 highway/streets at 65MPH avg. speed. Not bad...
