When I do take a trip I get around 20/21 again I’m doing 80 will all my highway driving, so if you baby it I’m sure you can milk some more MPG’s out of it. Aside from that I love my truck, it does what I need it to do, 4WD, handles decent for a 4WD, beat the piss out of it like a truck should be treated and keeps coming back for more… > > if you need more info on Colorado’s, Canyon’s check out [Coloradofans.com](http://Coloradofans.com) Exactly the mileage I get in my 06 CC Colorado and I dont drive it aggressively. I think the I5 is way underpowered and I should have just went with a Silverado. Price tag was a bit higher but I think I would have been alot happier. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/need-opinions-on-what-to-buy/184580)._
