i got about 18 city and 22ish highway with my 2000 3.0L/manual with a few mods; having a tonneau cover helps out a lot.

I've been getting 15 mpg w/ mixed city & highway driving on my 01 3.0, stock as far as I know. I'm going to fill up today and see what the numbers say, since I changed the air filter Thursday, and it got a 150-mile highway trip yesterday.

Hope for some better numbers - getting tired of mileage worse than the 1993 GMC Sonoma 4.3L HO w/ 122k that I did have.
