Funny how that is. Must be a truck guy thing. We got the cavalier fixed, so we're back to driving that most of the time. 28-30 MPG vs 17 MPG is a real win. Turns out it was a bad tire. A new set of tires (it was time anyway) and it drives as good as new. I feel much more like me again. Funny how that is. Must be a truck guy thing.

There's room in there for kidlets and such. I haven't been able to get a good handle on fuel mileage yet. So far it looks like about 16-17 MPG. The blazer got 19-20, so it's not a WHOLE lot worse. Most of our driving is highway though, so that helps. As soon as we get the wobble fixed in the cavalier, we'll drive that most of the time. This truck is pretty nice, and I want it to last me a good long time. It does have the back seats. There’s room in there for kidlets and such.

I remember when you came driving up to my dorm in the "new" Blazer and I though, aw man, I don't like it. It served us well but I like color and this truck is purdy!

It looks great. Does it have the back seats too, or just storage space in the extended cab? How many blocks does it get per gallon? Nice new toy! It looks great.
