Not bad at all. Better than my F150 which is averaging about 13.5 m/usg.
Also better than my old 86 Suburban that averaged about 12 m /usg.

  My 87 K30 crew cab dually that I just got running looks like it's getting
in the neighborhood of 17 mpg or so. TH400, no overdrive, 4x4, dually, with
what feels like 4.10 gears.

Sad thing is that's about the mileage of the 05 dodge crew cab dually 4x4,
with a cummins, six speed manual, and 3.73s.

Granted the cummins has almost twice the torque of the 6.2.

The 6.2 was quite a fuel efficient engine for what it was.
