It's the same way on the freeways here unless it's rush hour, then you are lucky to go 45.
The back road along the beach has been more fun than the freeway, might have to keep taking the long way even afte the breakin period lol

Daily driver SS2

Yes, I have had my SS2 for about a month and a half and I drive about 100 miles a day. I dont drive it every week I try to skip a week to keep the miles down, but sorry its just to much fun to drive. Anyway I have been averaging about 22 miles per gallon, and thats with the occasional getting on it to ward off the mustang wanta be's. but it does quite well. so far I have not gone past an average of 37 miles per hour, so if I get it on a long road trip I think it will get into the high 20's. Enjoy your ride!!!!! diggermike62

I am too afraid of idiots nowdays. I have an old POS truck, matter of fact just came out of the waterpark with a huge scratch on the front fender today (it's Vic Red).

Then I smiled and realized that's why I purchased a junker for "cheap miles". Cheap miles meaning the daily grind and or places that are packed.

I put less than 1000 miles a year on my vette. Probably will put lot more than that on the Camaro at least the first year I have it.

New to this forum, hope you don’t mind me asking this question here.
I just ordered my 2lt-rs last week, the dealer told me 10 to 12 weeks, anybody knows if this is accurate.

Like a lot of folks, it will be my daily driver until the cold weather comes; then I'll revert back to the Avalanche as my daily ride.

So far, the MPG has been decent; around 17mpg in rush hour; but overall 20 mpg on a full tank (so far, I've only burnt two tanks, still breaking it in)

Dealer told me 8-10 weeks in May for a LT, also was the same dealer who marked-up a 1ss RY Manual 5K. As for 10-12 weeks, I'm not sure.

I think that 10 to 14 weeks is ok.
