Don't buy a TBSS thinking you're going to get good gas mileage. I drove all city driving and the last 5400 miles my average was 12.4 mpg.

i wouldn't buy any performance vehicle or V8 if fuel mileage is a concern, those are conflicting interests. i find it easier to fill up my truck without looking at the pump or my receipt, makes it easier to be blind about it for me.

TBSS are nice vehicles, but personally they seem extremely cheap on the inside, besides the suede seats. Other than that they seem like an all around great car.

Yes not near as nice as tahoe we traded. But you have to figure in the fun factor.
