I went to a family reunion up in Pagosa Springs, CO. That's about a 400 mile one way trek up north from where I live. The Blazer did pretty good on the road, got anywhere from 18-22 mpg on the road, doing between 70-85 mph on both flat and mountain roads. Pulled the hillspretty good thoughsome of the 4th to 2nd downshifts onsome of the hillswere a bit jarring, lol. If I have one complaint, it is that GM didn't install a footrest for the left foot.[:'(]

 

That's what I use the flatpart of the wheelwell arch left of the brake pedal for.

 

Heh heh heh. I live in Steamboat, CO and last summer I drove from here to Jackson Mississippi and back. Thanksgiving last year I drove from here to Phoenix and back. This past May I drove from here to the Twin Cities and back. Each trip my A/C blew hot air only so the windows were down the entire time. I averaged 20 on the first two trips and 18-19 on the recent one, though I was driving much faster. These things are great for road trips. Plenty of space for gear and enough room for me to sleep at the rest stops.

 

I use that flat spot on the wheel well. It works pretty well

 

Dash works well for me!

 

yeah road trips!!! isn't nice to get suck nice gas milage? and just be happy your legs are long enough to really need a foot rest....

 

I usually use the flat spot on the wheel well, to the left of the clutch... or stick it out the window, if it's nice out.
