What is your gas mileage around town in the dead of winter?

Question

I have owned smaller vehicles with smaller engines that got worse around town mileage than a Yukon in the dead of winter. Yukon gets 15 mpg city in the dead of winter. I have had 4 cylinder vehicles that got 30mpg highway get 11 mpg in the city in the winter!

I talk to many people and ask them what they get for mileage and most of them don't check and or don't know how! Amazing!

Answer 1

about 18 miles in town, more on the highway

Answer 2

I own a '08 Chevy Tahoe LT with the fuel flex 5.3 Liter and I get about 16 mpg in town and 21 on a trip. And I absolutely love this vehicle. Winter or summer.

Answer 3

Actually depending on the car you drive you will get worse gas millage during the winter! Because they add alcohol to the gas during the winter because it runs hotter I think; and it works well with most newer cars but if you have an older carburetted car it will give you worse millage. It burns more inefficiently.
