How many miles?
If you use your TV as daily driver, how many miles do you drive per week and what is your unloaded mpg?

Unloaded MPG is 16.5 mixed driving. With an empty bed @ 70 mph hwy it's a steady 19.

Average around 60 miles a week. Get 15 mpg around town and 21 mpg on freeways at 70 mph.

I do four 12 mile trips daily and ave 17mpg. On longer trips driving 62-64 mph I'll get 22-23 mpg. Towing my 5er it's around 11-12 mpg. It seems that the short trips before the engine warms up is the fuel sucker.

That's about what I drive, I'm around 400 or so. I had an 08 silverado that was killing me.
At one time I was driving 1000/week in an F150 crew cab.
I hate throwing money out the tailpipe... I wish I could afford a dedicated TV.

When I am in town (I have to travel out of State for work) I drive about 280 miles per week. The new truck gets ~16.4 daily driving with 40/60 in town/highway. On the highway it will do 18-19 if I an keep it at 70. Over 70 and the mileage starts dropping fast...
