What Gas Mileage are you getting

I love my month old 2013 2LT RS V6 Camaro but I have been disappointed with the gas mileage! I am averaging 20.5 MPG
Is this normal?

depends mostly on your driving style, like if you get up and go pretty quickly a lot and if its city or freeway driving. Only freeway I get 28 prolly going 70-75mph. and I don't drive only city, but right now im doing a mix of freeway and city and im at about 19, but my air conditioner is always on, being in las vegas and all. but with out the air I was getting around 21. I know our cars are rated like 17 and 28 isn't it? so seems pretty normal to me. When I run E85 I get like 14 mpg LOL. And I don't care. Just please don't tell me you got your Camaro for mileage only Its a good looking car who cars about mileage lol

Average lifetime of the car is 21MPG with about 23k miles on it. On the highway I get a little under 29MPG at 75MPH. In the city it is totally diff since I love to get on it haha so my MPG is like 17-18 city.

I was averaging 22.5 mpg 80/20 highway/city (city is being stuck in atlanta traffic) before my trifecta tune. Now, after the tune, I'm at 24.2. But there is no such thing as flat roads around here. I'd bet in Kansas I'd average 27 if the driving didn't change.

Before FI I was getting 23 combined. 10 months after FI, 23 mpg. Don't ask in between I was lucky to pass every station for gas and tires

I've been driving like a major a-hole on this tank (thanks to my short shifter and exhaust) and I'm getting 20.5 MPG at the moment. There's some highway mixed in there too.
