When I got my car, it was used. 16k miles on it. It could hit 26mpg if I tried carefully to get that. And it was fast, but I was used to driving a comparatively slower car, the Cobalt SS. So I didn't know if the car was at its peak potential or not. Anyway, I was traveling from Houston to Dallas and back to Houston today, and the best mpg's I saw was 23mpg. And that was hard to achieve. Also, don't judge me, but me and a 2008 350Z did a small pull from like 10mph to 50mph and we were dead even.... That's when I knew something was wrong haha. Does anyone have any insight? I've heard people being able to achieve 30mpg on these forums and I have problems at 23-25mpg. Thank you.
