700 mile trip on a 500 mile 19 SS A10 and got 29.5. I was mind blown

Memphis SS · 07-13-2019, 09:46 AM

My best road trip was from Arlington TN to Bowling Green KY 32.5 mpg overall

DIYguy · 07-13-2019, 11:29 AM

28.3 mpg over the last 4853 miles.
This is with about 90% highway commuting and 10% weekend in-town driving.
In periods when I haven't driven it on weekends it will typically average in the 32-34 mpg range for the entire tank fill.

For a car of this size and performance I think that is quite remarkable.

We haven't taken it on any long trips yet but I anticipate it will average somewhere in the mid 30's.
We shall see.

Here’s my mileage driving from Detroit to Knoxville. Almost all of the trip was done top down, roughly 75 - 85 on the highway. It was still showing V4 in the 80s.

The next day I drove from Knoxville to Bowling Green for CamaroFest and improved my “Best 50 Miles” to 33.1

I'm scared to even look.

Last week I was in AZ and rented an Orange Crush 9 SS with the A10 and drove on a 500+ road trip to the Grand Canyon and got a consistent 28-29.5 mpg. I was very surprised to say the least. I hit hwy 89A on the way back so all bets were off. Great cruising road with incredible scenery btw with some very nice twisties or switchbacks as the locals call it.

I just checked:

Lifetime average ( haven't reset the "A" trip since new ) of 22.3 MPG.

Got the car late April 2018. 13,000 and change on it so far.

V8, 6-speed car.

DenverTaco07 · 07-14-2019, 05:43 PM

17.4 MPG over 13K miles. Of course I don't have DOD.

This was my trip home from CFIX. This time with top up. Same driving habits. 75-85 where road and traffic permitted. Saw V4 at 93 mph on one downhill stretch.

Trip A: Tank average. I reset this when I filled up on the way to Tail of the Dragon, so it includes driving the Dragon and 5 drag strip runs at Beech Bend.

Trip B: Bowling Green to Detroit

Last 50: Self explanatory.

I don't have a lot of MPG data built up for this car yet, but I did just make a 1700 mile road trip with it.
I have a spreadsheet that I use to track the mileage data for the Camaro:

MPGI is Miles Per Gallon Indicated; it's what the car's computer claims for MPG. I use Trip A to keep track of it, and reset Trip A every time the car is filled up.
The Calc MPG column is the actual calculated MPG for each tank. With the exception of the first tank, the car's computer has been optimistic when it comes to gas mileage, but it is usually withing 1-2 MPG of the calculated amount.
