since when?????

i always thought it was 29 highway

I drive local roads all the time and its about 16 17 right now for manual v6 stock. Fill up every 2 weeks for like 30 bucks.

Manual is rated at 28 MPG. Automatic is at 29.

LoneStar · 10-14-2010, 11:17 PM

My window sticker says 29 mpg. I have the A6.

*The_Blur* · 10-14-2010, 11:25 PM

Those are manual numbers.

I have the LT/1LT V6 and I average 19 mpg city. I only drive local and I also only fill up every two weeks.

hell, I get 29 mpg on the freeway in my v8 manual. It's all about how you drive the car. =)

'Cuz the 2011s have 312 HP as opposed to 304 from 2010

Kidding

My 2011 window sticker says "18/29" too.

ssump29 · 10-15-2010, 07:10 AM

Yup I get 27 or more on the V8 LS3. like others have said all about how you drive.

Interesting...Wonder if they changed the gearing at all on the manual?
