Default LS1 28 mpg !!

I drove my car to dallas for 3 days for work. I drove it like a 90 year old woman... passed up 3 races and drove 65 the entire trip. I got and av. of 28mpg that is going threw a lot of small towns with stop lights and lots of construction. I think the car is getting 29 or 30mpg at 65. It was about 85* with the windows up and the ac on!

i cant belive the car did this well.

They let him think he won... he didn't really win. He got bent over and violated with no... lube... That woulda cost extra.
