I'm guessing yours is an L99? I can't see any way I could get that kind of MPG in my LS3. I'm taking a road trip this October. I'll see what happens there.

are this real numbers? I have the v6 and get 19 or so in the city around 22 on trips. I think the best ever was 24 on a trip to Florida. How can you get that much better in a v8
