I can't edit my posts and its way too hard to type while I drive, but this car is an automatic, too. I just picked it up this morning with only 413 miles on it. If I can do that with this slushbox tranny, I can do it in my a4

WTF and at almost 3k. i think its chevy giving a false readout to make it look more fuel efficent.

I'll double check it against my used fuel ( I hit the highway with a full tank) but looking at the gauge and miles gone, that's pretty right where it should be

Wow, double posting ftw.

Anyway, after 206 miles of pure highway driving, I stopped and filled up. My car took 4.213 gallons of fuel, and assuming that the fuel pumps are calibrated to the same spec, that is about 48.9 mpg. I'd guess a realistic margin of error on that is 5%+/- so, yeah.

congrats, I think I might average twenty some MPG with my foot. TO bad I don't have a boat where it's gallons per minute instead.
