So your overall is somewhere around 16 then.

Your sig says you have a LS3 SS. This is a poll for ZL1's.

Freeway with cruise set @ 78-80 mph, I've averaged about 18.5-19 mpg over about 400 miles this past weekend. My around town city average is about 11-12 mpg so far and I have only had the skip shift engaged twice while driving because I do like hearing the exhaust with the fuse pulled while going thru the gears.

Its kinda funny you can tell who drives hard and who does not. The next pole after this should be of the people who are 12mpg and under, how may are ready for tires and their mileage lol

I've never checked it. But I hope I am getting around 10 or 11 mph. If not I wouldn't feel like I'm driving it the way it was built to drive.
