The T-4 can almost certainly be tuned to produce better fuel economy in the EPA drive cycles. But like they say, "your mileage may vary" . . . and it does.
Customer preferences and wants count for less than meeting mandated requirements, which puts Chevy and all the rest in the position of being middlemen between the customer and the regulators. I don't envy the advertising guys who have to spin what somebody else thinks we're all supposed to want into being a top-priority attraction for each and every one of us in our purchase decisions.
