My SS usually gets around 16mpg but I ride in stop and go traffic every day. My average MPH is 25-30. For some reason this week, my mpg jumped to 17.4. I didn't really change my driving habit either. Every day, I do at least 5-6 WOT...soooo I'm sure I can do better.

Damn, I get 19.2 in my LS3 m6. And I'm a bit of a leadfoot sometimes.

Although when I drive "calmly" I make consistent 2500rpm shifts 'till I get to 6th, which I feel like helps my mileage.

I'm very happy to be driving my camaro. I get better bang for my buck driving my camaro and filling it with 93 premium than I did driving my truck and filling it with regular.


Wil get pic up soon

Average for the last 8K miles is 18.0-18.3 MPG with an average speed of 35 MPH

On a long-ish highway run I averaged 25.004 or something MPG, cruise at 72 MPH.

20.8mpg over 3900 miles of driving, mixed city/highway in my 2011 SS M6. I'm a happy guy, especially since I've got a heavy foot.

I find it amazing that some of our LS3/L99 members are getting such good mileage. I guess some of my habits and circumstances are eating up 5-6 MPG. I posted my just under 17MPG over 11,000 miles earlier. In my case, I rarely get out of 4th gear, and I do like to hear the exhaust...so...
