Average MPG

According to the Chevrolet Website the V6 Camero should get you up to 30 mpg on average... but even with very moderate driving style I only get 17 mpg s .. ( according to computer gage )
is that normal ?

Fluctuating from Winter round town occasional 17 mpg :-( ... up to Summer 31.2+ mpg (UK Gallons)

I have averaged 18.4 since I got mine a few months ago. I haven't reset it since the week I got it. It was in the 17s for a while, but after a few more highway miles it has been starting to creep up. 17mpg in town is average for me, too much stop and go traffic. You should get a lot more than that on the highway, though.

Does not sound right. I have an SS and I get 17 MPG from combined Highway/City driving. My former 2010 LS used to get 23 MPG highway/city driving.

I get about 23 mpg in a good mix of city/hwy driving. Been that way since I bought it new. In hwy only driving I average 30 mpg but that's the only time I see that.
