It is a bit early to judge, but here are the statistics related to the MPG of the hummer after its surgery...


215 miles by 15 gallons – 11.24.06 – 14.3 MPG

233 miles by 15 gallons – 11.26.06 – 15.5 MPG

(bullet one takes into account similar driving as bullet two... no four wheel driving... not sure why the discrepency... but i will need further numbers to build a more accurate estimate....)

Another left brained guy.

 

What was it before the head job (he he he).

Did you let the car warm up more on the first run?

 

At least it appears to be improving...

After my last fill up (today).. on average I am getting less MPG than prior....

Will update as i go along...

 

You are averaging two extreme variations, 2 or 3 fills vs 14..that is not a fair estimate or average...Because you have altered your driving style believe it or not, and weather conditions have also fluctuated..so there is some major inconsistancies that must be taken into account...before you can even make a fair comparison.

I think as time goes on, you'll appreciate an improvement

 

Dennis is right, and if you look close, you will see that your new MPG is still in the ball park as the old MPG. So far, your table looks very similar to mine, except I have a couple that are down around 9MPG, but those were exclusive off road trips with a lot of idling and low range.

 

Jerk... I average less than that in normal driving

I haven't locked my doors since I brought it back from the dealer the last time, nobody has stolen it yet...What the hell is this world coming to that noone will steal an unlocked H3

 

HAHAH nice... "It's the tires"...
