Same with me.

I try not to push gas pedal hard but... it's difficult. ;P

[SUKXOST]

I don't feel so bad now. Mine has been in the 19.5-20.5 range. I am trying NOT to floor it, but I think I just drive in too much traffic. Guess I'll see this weekend with a 200 mile road trip.

Gas and don't even get me started about tires....

[sexybeast=Camaro5thgen]

hmm speaking of tires my car is new for some reason my tire pressure have been changing its weird a day is higher than 34 psi and then lower do you guys think there is aproblem with pressure sensor or whatever measure tire pressure

[Mr. iNCREDIBLE]

seriously, why do people by cars like Camaros, Mustangs, Challengers, Corvettes, and then get on a forum and say:

how do I save gas?


you save gas by buying a flocking prius, not buy a 6.2L muscle car, or hell even the V6 version (though they are slightly better on mpgs).


YOU BOUGHT A SPORTS CAR, GET OVER THE MPG WHINING AND DRIVE THE FLOCKING CAR.

I decided not to drive in M until 1500 miles mark. :P
And I rarely drive on highways, that must be the case.

I'll see the pure highway mileage in a month once I go to vegas.

Sometimes it is in 36-37 range, while yesterday it was 34. I guess it's normal. :P Can't be sure though.

I don't mind that gas mileage.
It just weirds me out that my cousin's Mercedes G55 with 500 horsepower can drive for 240-260 miles on a single tank (21 galons) and my 2LT Camaro 260 miles with 19 galons :P

[Neumatic]

Thats due to your driving habits though. I mean hell, I get right around 280-300 in my SS and I by no means take it easy.

But my story is this...I bought my Camaro last year and have loved every single mile I have put on it and loved every drop of gas that it took(ok, maybe not the price of the gas though).
