2010 Camaroo SS gas mileage
I just took 2 400 mile round trips with the Camaro and got 20.4 mpg on the first trip and 19.6 mpg on the second, my numbers were for actual distance/gallons not using the est. mpg on the car. trying to figure out if these are good numbers considering my mods and lead foot. i would say most of both trips were cruising at about 75-80 mph on average. Would my mileage difference be significant had i went 65 mph? the second trip had about 1.5 hours of stop and go traffic getting out of NY.
Thanks, Charlie

Most V8 owners are reporting 26-30 MPG all highway.
I would say back it down to 65, the numbers should go up.

But if you're talking interstate it'll be 21-25. Real highway (55mph) could definitely be higher! Then again I don't think anyone buys an SS for MPGs

I do not know how you guys are reporting such high mileage for a v8....I drive a v6 and I am getting 26mpg TOPS and this is when I really really really try to drive the proper speeds with a feather foot! - highway of course!

I think the LS has a different rear end than the LT. It's certainly geared toward fuel economy! I have to really curb my driving habits to get 28mpg. Usually 24-26 highway, 22 in town.
