Wow....just, wow. I almost don't know what to say. GM almost seems to be at war with itself....two entirely different companies all under the same roof. On one side, they can build stuff like the Camaro, the new ATS, the new Vette, the new trucks, etc....all kinds of great stuff...

Then, at the same time, someone on the other side of the building takes a page out of the old GM playbook, and says..."there's a market niche we aren't in, dump something in it. It doesn't matter what, the important thing is something is there."

Every once in a while, nothing can be more. This might be one of those cases.

That really is an enigma. With that engine/transmission in that vehicle, I don't know how a number that low is possible. The V8 versions of the Mustang, Camaro, and Challenger get that, or better.

Why not get a stripped mini-van, like the Ram C/V...that has a V6, and gets better mileage.
