Mine got worse as it broke in. I was in the 19-20 city at first then by about 1500 miles I was down to 16.8 and it has hung out at that point since.

The dealer put 308 miles on my car to bring it to my dealer, so I am not sure how it did on the highway from PA to MA. But since I picked it up I put 72 miles on it and the DIC indicates 20.1 Mpg. My truck average fuel usage is dead on, so I assume the Camaro is as well.

Brand new I was getting about 15.5 mpg. After 8k miles I started to get 17 out of the blue. After installing the hurst shifter and shifting at about 1.8-2k rpm I'm now getting 17.2-17.5 mpg in the city

Not sure if I'm taking it too easy, but so far after 800 miles I'm averaging 21.5 mpg for combined city/hwy in a 2SS/RS...

Just looked at my option sheet, it says 21 mpg city and 36 hwy.....WTF???
It's a 2SS w/ L99 I honestly don't know how the heck they can justify those BS numbers. No one can get that mileage, unless you're driving in a vacuum...LOL |

I could only get 22 MPG when my SS/A6 was new (600 miles) with cruise control set for one hour @ 70 MPH.
Now with 7,000 plus miles its much improved. It gets 24-25 MPG with normal highway driving @ 65-75 MPH.

Sounds like a misprint to me. It should be more like 18 city and 22 highway on the SS.

I've put 2500mi on a SS LS3 & consistently get 21.5 mpg. I get on it at times, but there are quite a few 20 mi / 65 mph cruise control trips. Not nearly as good as my '07 stang GT, which did 25 pretty easy. Stang doesn't have 426 hp, either.
Skip shift (1-3-5/6) and use cruise - you'll see the numbers improve. Enjoy! |

I keep doing that... but it hasn't fixed the mpg problem I have with my right foot!

I am really interested in knowing how they calculate the MPG on the DIC. How long before the old data fall out of the calculation?
