Bone stock '05 LT, 25 city 30ish highway.

Really for the size of the car and the performance it can dish out, the car is pretty efficient. GM may have been on to something.
Thanks `Brian, & Members for your post information.
Brian, how are you driving your Monte Carlo ?
EZ/Hard ?
How many miles on your 05LT ?
You are getting great MPG's 4-Sure : )
I think GM should think aboutbringingthe Monte back: )
Thanks Member's for adding infor to this thread topic.
Wish everyone better MPG's/Fun & Safe Travels in
your Chevrolet Monte Carlo.
Peace/Out/`Space

Kinda a mix as far as how hard I drive it. Most of the time I go easy on her lots of coasting down from higher speed when I can and easy on the accelerator, and then there are those days where I find it necessary to squeal the tires at every stoplight. It's got 45000 miles on it.
