2003 S10 Blazer, 4WD Automatic, First drive all highway 400miles 22MPG, since then around town puttering has gotten 16MPG, we are in the heat of summer here so all driving has been with AC on. The highway speed limit was 70MPH so I would have set cruise at 75 for that trip. Wind direction unknown.

I cant figure out where my milage went. went I 1st got the truck I did a trip 500 miles going 80 the whole way got 24.8 mpg. I then changed my tires and it drope bad now I have to sacrafice a small animal and pray to the god to get anywhere close to 20. the old tires where 235/75s so are the new ones. It might help if I tuned it up. and I should pry just give up on worring about fuel milage if I do lift it and put some bigger tires on it

This thread really is not for diagnosing/discussing your concerns over your mileage... Just a poll. Please search for terms like "mileage+improve" or some other combination of various words to find past posts on that subject. If you still cannot find the information you seek, post a new thread in the appropriate area.
