What kind of gas mileage do you get in your Monte Carlo?
 
This thread is primarily directed at the LS4 Monte Carlos, I was pretty appalled at how awful their fuel economy becomes when you tune out the DOD.

In my 2003 SS I would average 18city/28highway.

In my 2001 Z28 I average 16city/26highway.

What do you all you guys get?

Im avg. 18.4 mpg. W/ DOD

I got a pretty heavy lead foot though.

like i said in another thread. 24 highway so far. 22ish average with 80% highway but only the second tank of gas this year so maybe I might be able to do a little better. kinda depends on how you drive them too. If you put your foot down at all it doesnt take long for that mpg to go way down :rotfl:

I just took it out of storage last week. I average about 5k per year on my monte.

Frosty LS1 04-08-2013 11:48 PM

My daily average for my Z28 is about 20MPG. I forget what my '03 Monte was, but I imagine it was about 21 or 22.

With DOD and trusting the in car computer AVG readout the last 4 months I got 11.9L/100Km or about 19.75MPG.

I know I could get better but I drive it pretty hard.
So I'll take it.
