A big reason the new Vettes are able to achieve 26mpg with big block
power.
I haven't checked recently but normally get ~19-20 combined when driving
reasonably. Last drive to/from the track (~2.5 hrs. one way and then 15
laps on course avg'd ~10-12 mpg (combined). It runs pretty rich but no
black smoke from the exahust like it was at one time. Max A/F's are
9.6:1. Rear ratio comes into play as well, I have the 3:90 in right now
so I stay around 70 on the interstate.
6 mpg on your commute? Must have some nice roads to have that kind of
fun.

All the V8s out there have 20yrs of technology on the 7M too.
14 is ok.
On a fun day, I'll get 6 on the first 15mi of my drive to work, and
about 4 hot lapping around a road course.
