Okay guys, Toronto has finally been hit with WINTER.
One of the reasons I chose the LTZ over the Denali was because the LTZ was not full-time A4WD - that is, I get to choose 2WD when 4WD is not necessary, without leaving that up to the onboard computers - which are incapable, in A4WD, to truly run the vehicle in 2WD.
Having been hit with some snow & ice last week, I switched over to A4WD. I left it there for the duration of the bad weather, which was pretty much the whole weekend.
Now that my tank is empty, and I've checked the odometer, I'm here to report the following: WOW!!! I went from 560 - 580km (350 miles or so) per tankful in 2WD, down to a lowly 400km (250 miles) on this tank, in A4WD.
THAT'S a 30% drop, for those of you reaching for your calculators.
ANOTHER reason why I was right in choosing the LTZ over the Denali!!!
