Since I publicized to this board the fact that we are making the new drive clean gf-4 with predominately gp.III base oils, I felt compelled to report that over the first 1000 miles that the gas mileage on my Chevy Colorado 4X4 ext cab. 4 cyl., actually decreased from ~23 mpg. to ~21.5 mpg. Not sure if this is because of the gas being switched to the winter formulation ot not in my area. I have consulted our lab, but have not been given an answer,... yet.
Can everyone please start posting fuel econmy changes with comparisons from gf-3 to gf-4, dino oils only, no synthetics or blends. This can be useful data. Can the moderators start a poll on this forum?
