I have a 08 Tahoe 4x4 with 65,000 on it. It had 28,000 when I got it. The best it's ever done was 19 and I babied it the whole time never running over 70MPH on a 300 mile trip. The speed limit was 65 for the most part.
The gas milage sucks on the newer vehicles. The e-85 isn't worth the extra pennies either. I will never run it as long as regular gas is with in a $1.00 of it.
