Surprised by my MPG today - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

christianmotox · 02-23-2013, 04:43 PM

I just came back from Disney in Anaheim drove back to San Diego steady doing 65 mph on the 5 south, I re-set the DIC when I got on the freeway in Anaheim and checked it when I got home in San Diego and I got a 32.8 MPG

So with gas being 4.60 a gallon here I was very pleased I took my camaro on this trip.

Thanks, I just wanted to share

I have gotten 33MPG in my 2LT going 60 lol, usually though while driving on the highway I get around 29-30.

OP has an SS in his sig/avatar though lol. I don't think I've ever gotten better than 22-ish on highway, even using 6th gear.

Mchlgrrsn · 02-23-2013, 05:22 PM

I get 13 mpg and proud of it
