Re: Fuel efficiency...what MPG do you get?

1981 K10 305/350 all stock. No muffler, VERY low gears (5.56 or lower), 235/75R15's.

It's about 400-500 pounds lighter than stock due to the rust.

I get between 6-10mpg on it depending on weather. I live out on the prairie so I get the full brunt of ANY wind flat in my face. Generally when I'm late getting to work so I've got my foot in it.

BTW, a block from my house I'm doing 65mph for the 10 miles to work, so pretty much all my driving is highway.
