I saw a part of it last night, its got some kid and a toyota and a guy with his full size chevy sayin hes got a v8 and still gets better gas mileage. I cant find it anywhere on the net.
I just thought it was cool, like the only chevy ad that seemed to stand out lately. Something different besides a car driving down the road followed by a red tag/employee pricing sale segment

That new dodge truck kicks ***, and looks good doing it. Sad thing is I'm not a dodge fan. FORD = Fuckup Or Rebuilt Dodge

I just saw that comm. during the NFL game.It is Howie Long asking some kid what gas mileage he gets w/ his Toyota and the kid says 19 MPG and Howie say's v6 or v8 and the kid say's v6.

In the latest test covering full size trucks, 3 magazines say the Tundra gets better gas mileage than Chevy.

according to fueleconomy.gov

tundra
4X4 V8 5.7L gets 13/17
4X2 V8 5.7L gets 14/18
4X2 V6 4.9L gets 16/19


Silverado
4X4 V8 5.3L gets 14/20
4X4 V8 6.0L gets 13/18
4X4 V8 6.2L gets 12/19
4X2 V8 5.3L gets 15/21


Chevy OWNS mpg.

We can go by stats all you want. But in the real world, where test have been performed, they have lost.

when talking about the 6.2 i can believe that but not with the 5.3 my dad averages 19mpg with 50/50 city highway and thats real world results.

Some people on Tundrasolutions are getting 20-22 with their 5.7 liter. It's hard to make a comparison, without knowing the variables involved.

When equipped with the 6 speed automatic even the 6.2L (and 6.0L) versions deliver some stellar highway fuel economy.

Teal94Z

and now the 5.3 has a 6 speed so it should get a good boost in mpg aswell

Teal94Z

yeah probably all highway driving going 65 the whole time, doubt it could get near that with any city driving.

The 5.3 gets good gas mileage, but it is pretty weak compared to the 6.0/6.2 and the 5.7 in the Tundra. 1-2mpg shouldn't be the deciding factor when buying an automobile anyway.

Theres also another new Chevy commercial where Howie makes fun of Fords new heesy tailgate step. Kinda funny.

I saw the one where they make fun of the Dodge truck's heated steering wheel. I thought it was pretty clever. All in all, I'm happy to FINALLY see some marketing coming from GM.

Sure they are. And your street glows and stickers add 3 mpg to your Honda...I mean Tundra.

Teal94Z

I just saw the one when they campare the mini cooper to the escalade hybrid i thought that one was pretty funny.

Teal94Z

well most people dont need more towing capability than the 5.3 and the better mpg just makes it that much of a better buy

which is why you should go by the web site I referenced, because everything is tested the SAME WAY.

I read the new Motortrend and Trucktrend(I believe it was TT) and they stated differently. Why should I believe one over the other? Especially when multiple magazine are getting the same results.
