I used to regularly approach 30 MPG in my old 74 Chevy C-10

300,000 miles, a/c, cruise, 350 V8, 4bbl carb, TH350 automatic tranny.

FE mods:

Electronic ignition out of a 75 Chevy van, platinum plugs, flipped air cleaner lid upside down, and aftermarket cruise installed.

Then in 75 they started putting emissions crap on light duty trucks and FE dropped quickly.
