What Kind of Fuel Economy do you get on your Blazer
Hi I'm wondering what kind of Fuel Economy everone is getting on their Blazer. I have a 2000 2dr Blazer 4wd v6 4.3 and it has 145,000 miles on it. It gets about 240 miles to the gallon which is like 12mpg(city/hwy). So I just wanted to compare to what other people are getting.
Thank You
Nick

first time i checked it it was 16, then 20, then 18. so i guess it would be safe to say 18 mpg

LOL riddle!
Anyway, this topic comes up quite often. I don't have a problem with creating new threads every now and again on it, but please use comparable units. Miles to the tank is virtually meaningless. Some blazers have a smaller tank than others. So try to keep it to MPG or L/100km or km/L and state whether it is in US gallons or Imperial gallons.

I have a 98 4dr blazer with 136kmiles on it and get on average if I keep the foot off the gas around 18mpg city and 21-25 mpg highway (depending on if it is a 65mph or 55mph highway, meaning I do 70mph or 60mph respectively). This is in US Gallons. City turns out to be about 270miles to a 18 gallon tank and highway is about 340 miles on 18 gallon tank, for both measurements I tend to fill up with only 13 and 15 US gallons (just about a 1/4 tank left). Hope this helps.
If you are getting this bad of mileage you are either using the throttle a lot or in need of a tune up, just my thoughts. However there are a lot of things that affect gas mileage, such as excess weight in the trunk, needing a tune up, dirty air filter, heavy acceleration, lots of idling, running the A/C or heat a lot, trailering, stop and go traffic, personal driving habits, and last but not least original equipment (ie. differential and gear sizes and type of transmission, 4x4, etc)
RUSHER: It gets about 240 miles to the gallon which is like 12mpg(city/hwy).

I get 18 to 20 mpg, around 300 to 350 to a 18 gallon tank. I have a 2004 4x4 stock blazer 99,800 miles on it and almost done with all the tune up crap. I have a fairly heavy foot, usually keep her between 2500 to 3200 rpms when speeding up. Even mix of city/highway miles. I got the truck with 12,000 miles on it, and kept up on all the maintenace, mobile 1 full syn, and 93 octane the whole time ive had it.
