Take a look at the Jeep Liberty or if you need more room, try a Grand Cherokee. Either way, you'll be getting right around 20 miles per gallon (much better than a Silverado), dominant 4x4 capibility, and a veghicle that has one of the best resale values of ANY vehicle on the market, dollar for dollar. The other thing you may want to take a peek at is the Chrysler Pacifica AWD. Alittle bit more luxury, but over 94 cubic feet of cargo space, seating for up to six, over 20 mpg and a 5 star crash test rating.
Either way, dealerships are making INSANE deals on remaining 2006 inventory, so if you're looking to purchase within a month, you'll be sure to get a great deal on what's left in stock.
Best of luck with your search!

GMC is the higher version of Chevrolet. The base model GMC has more standard options than the base model Chevy. This is the same as you move up the brands. The pinnacle of the older GMC trucks was the C3 or Denali which had the high output engine, four wheel steering,best of everything, etc...there was no Chevy truck that compared. GMC makes only trucks, nothing else...even though all of that they are essentially identical except for options and some trim parts/options.

Ford Escape manual is a good choice. Good gas mileage. If you only drive in the city, the hybrid maybe a possibility. But for a 50/50 use city/highway the manual is great.

To improve gas mileage their are several things you can do,
1 change your fuel filter
2 possibly change your igniter
3 spark plugs, wires and distributor cap if their is one.
If this doesn't work, look at buying a SUV. Do your research on the SUV you want to buy and compare gas mileage.
I replaced my fuel filter and changed my igniter in my car and I got about 100 more kilometres out of my tank. It was a little costly but it worked.

Ford Escape and the Chevy Equinox would be two good choices.
