35 MPG for V-6?
I saw on the forum that the v-6 gets 35mpg and the v-8 gets 24. are the v-6's really getting that good of fuel milage? If so I'm not changing my order to a v-8 and keeping the v-6 for sure

That's not "on the forum". That's an external link. The info is bad.
It's 29 highway. That's like at 55 with cruise control on a level road. |

Not quite sure anyone is getting the published MPGs yet. If you look at the V8 threads, most folks are getting from 18-21 MPGs. Some are saying the engine needs to get broken in for the MPGs to improve.
