huh.... Dude, thats not what im saying at all.


A general comment was challenged as an epa debate.

"You can cruise a C6 and get 28mpg. So they didn't have to work to hard to get 30mpg. GM has been on top when it comes to sports car fuel econ for a decade. The pontiac GTO did extremely well too in terms of mpg vs power as well"..

This was meant as a user/driver/owner performance comment. Not to state magazine or manufacturer stats. There's no debating an individualized experience. From a owners or users standpoint, my experience with quite a few v8 GM cars is that they exceed in overall mpg's.

So in the longform, i'm saying Chevy reaching 30mpg on a v8 isnt surprising to me based on the last decade of exceptional fuel economy. It's such a loosely based opinion. It doesnt need a bar graph and stat debate. Thats what im saying...

But like i said, clicks always have an agenda.
