I sure won't call you a liar, but I will say I find it very hard to believe both your highway and in town numbers. Heck, your getting as good of mileage with the V8 as GM claims with the V6. Hats off to you if its real. The picture proves nothing by the way.

I'm confused as to why you sc'd if you didn't plan on cracking 2k rpm's.

Pic doesn't prove much. Anyone can hit reset going down a hill in 6th at 60.

To be honest with you. If my car was tellin game the numbers you are stating, I would 100 % assume it was out of calibration!

Even with that, it is hard to believe. I have gotten a 23 MPG average on a 300 mile trip with the cruise set at 79 MPH. You are claiming 7 MPG better driving conservative and running 65 MPH. I have to admit, its very hard to swallow, but as I said before, hats off to you if you can get it.

trust me it goes past 2k i just had a couple weeks where i wanted to see what kind of mpg's i could get out of it if i didnt do anything....my friend in his convertible was getting 27mpg when he had the same supercharger on his car when he was doing the power tour....but it is what it is i guess

Newb owner here, what is mpg? Isn't that for someone else to worry about.

Hell the real question is how low can you go!!! (Ron Burgendy voice)

One thing about 1LE Club, dont talk about MPG...

If I'm driving to work and home I see around 18-19.5 but when I go on a longer trip its usually in the 24-25 range. I saw 27 for brief bit on my trip to Tennessee but its like 15 or 16 when playing

I typically have my foot in it's ass so I don't even wanna look. Between the $40K I dropped on the car and the amount I've poured into it since, I feel like a hypocrite if I watched the mpg it's getting.
