12mpg at the road course, 17-18mpg mixed daily driving and about 24-25mph highway cruising at 75-80mph. And that's with a cam!

I used to have an SRT-10 truck with the M6, the worst I got was 5mpg when I was at the road course lol. I had it over in Europe so it cost me $230 for one tank of gas haha

About 12 when I first got it, because I couldn't resist flooring it all the time.

I did a 10.8 when I first got it. After I did the fuse pull I am anywhere from 13.5-16 depending on how I drive it. I am pretty much all city driving with a lot of stop and go's. My average speed tends to be around 23mph.

nothings wrong with it other than you deprived yourself of at least 4k miles of high revving enjoyment!

12.5 - 13 back and forth to work during summer last year. I live 3 miles from work, 10-15 stop signs, 5 stop lights and a bridge that has been under construction for the last 4 years and a bunch of people who don't understand how to operate their gas pedal... what should be a 5 minute drive took 35-40 minutes on a good day which accounts for my fuel mileage. But as a side note, my 06' 3.9 G6 GTP got the same or worse

Im.just over 1000 miles and im around 16.5... with only the occassional hard acceleration... I expected around 18. Dealer claims 93 octane was used for initial fill, and nothing but since. Not site if I need the fuse pull...

Not really sure on the 2010, maybe 18 MPG but I had a 468 Big Block in my 1970 Z-28 that ran low to mid 11's in the 1/4 and I was getting 4-6 MPG with that!!!
