When I actually start paying for my gas I might care or at least stay off the throttle most of the time, i just picked up a 2011 SS/rs. Until then I am enjoying every 800 plus hard miles that I have driven so far and counting.

I got 14 on my first tank, and I'm only getting 16-17 on this tank in my 2SS.

Right now the DIC says 17 mpg. I went thru the first tank pretty quick just getting used to the car (you understand LOL) but I am trying to just drive it sanely to see what it will get on my daily commute. I reset the fuel information every time I fill up the car.

It still beats my Silverado I traded in by 2 mpg.

Rarely check, but I think somewhere in the 14-15 MPG range.

It should if you slow down I'm only getting 15 MPG in a brand new LT

Has anyone seen the Camaro with the 32" rims?

I put 4 of these on and I get better gas mileage:

Between highway and city I average 17.7 mpg in my M6 SS. If I reset the DIC, I always end up right around there after a few days of driving.

my 2012 LS is getting about 19-21mpg average so far, but that is with maybe 30% highway and lots and lots of slow, retarded drivers around me and lots o' stop lights for the other 70%. on the highway, it is not uncommon for me to get between 28-32mpg
