Has does it perform? Slow as an SD? Owner claims 20+ mpg's.. this true? Seems like a good highway cruiser and urban tank.

Any info would be great.

Thanks
I had an '89 K1500 that I loved but had to sell to get some cash when I bought our house. It was no powerhouse but it was adequate as a tow vehicle for my boat and snowmobiles. The injection pump did get replaced at 135k. I'd get 17 hwy so if it's a 2wd 20 is definitely within reason.

I'd buy another one if I came across a low mileage one with a mint body.
