Here is a list of the heaviest vehicles sold in the states in 2008:

CHEVROLET Suburban 2500 6L
CHEVROLET Suburban 2500 6.2L
PORSCHE Cayenne Turbo 4.8L
LINCOLN Navigator 5.4L
GMC Yukon 2500 6L
GMC Yukon 2500 6.2L
HUMMER H2 6.2L
FORD Expedition 5.4L
HUMMER H2 6L

These vehicles are not required to share mileage ratings due to the over 8500lb (CAFE) status each holds.

Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) is the sales weighted average fuel economy, expressed in miles per gallon (mpg), of a manufacturer’s fleet of passenger cars or light trucks with a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of 8,500 lbs. or less, manufactured for sale in the United States, for any given model year. Fuel economy is defined as the average mileage traveled by an automobile per gallon of gasoline (or equivalent amount of other fuel) consumed as measured in accordance with the testing and evaluation protocol set forth by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

Interesting how many are from GM…hmmm. What were YOU Thinking?
