Never checked it. Probably never will. When the gauge gets to 1/4 tank I fill it up. I am sure it would get decent mileage for the power it has if I babied it, but I did not buy this beast for mileage.

What would be the monthly cost if you had to round it. About tree fiddy. But really, there's so many variables here. Distance? Type? Driving Habits?
I drove from Atlanta, GA to Houston, TX when I bought the car. Averaged around 30 MPG and saw higher when driving 60.

I really wanted the V8 for some late night driving and cruising, lots of highways and interstates. I was really hoping the V8 could give me above 20 mpg but I see alot of posts saying its in the teens.
Glad we could help and good call. You will be happy with the V6.Cost for gas overall is the lowest between the turbo 4, V6 and the V8 as the V6 gets pretty good MPG and takes regular gas versus premium.I bought my V6 for this reason.At first I wished I got the V8 SS- but that was when I lived 6 miles from work.Now I have a 50 miles commute- and I really love the V6.I rotate between my Camaro and a Fiesta ST due to the huge miles I put on.I run 89 octane in the ST and get 37 and run 87 octane in the Camaro and get 31.Comes out about the same as far as cost per week and I can use either as a daily.

I didn't buy mine for gas mileage, I don't drive it for gas mileage and I get 32 on highway and 18 in town. V6M6. I also use regular unleaded. FYI, my 74 Z28 got 6mpg.

Maybe I'm lucky.
Hilltown driving mostly, sizeable towns/cities ~20+ miles away.
A reset yesterday shows between 28-30mpg around here; SS.
(Post office, and gas station, nice pull up a half-mile hill)
Stuck in traffic, I imagine the mileage would fall off a cliff.

I’m right between 19-20 with mixed driving. Car is not my daily driver but usually spend about $100 a month on fuel.

2018 SS. I enjoy my car. I measure fuel consumption by SMILES per gallon. I drive my car spirited and enjoy mashing the pedal.

Don't care. Did not buy the car for this. If you are looking or are concerned about this, you are looking at the wrong car!
