I love the looks on the hybrid drivers faces when I tell them this. I get this because of the VTC set at EC7 ...

This just doesn't sound right! I can coast and reset my DIC and it say the same thing. Plus, if you have a your VTC set at 7 which is more aggressive, wouldn't you be using more gas as it is quicker to open throttle?
Sorry if Im feeding!

Just thought I would update this thread as it was my first time on the highway with my ZL1. Doing about 65 in 6th gear, I am very happy with my average MPG. This was a 20 mile trip.

I pulled out my window sticker today and yep you're right $2600. Didn't care to much about the petty details when I got it since I knew it was coming with the car no matter what.
