Hey everyone

Ive done alot of reading and i see alot of people say there sonoma (4.3l) that they are getting terrible fuel economy. they said there lucky to get 400 kms to a tank of gas. I donno aobut them but if you drive like a normal person and dont speed the sonoma is actually amazing on fuel for a v6. I finally had a chance to do an all highway trip and i went from toronto to windsor which if some peole dont know is pretty much right beside detriot. out of 70L tank i managed to crack 802 kms to a tank of gas which is a ratio of 8.8 / 100 kms which I think is amazing! I know city i can easy get over 600
what does everyone else get roughly all highway / city?

For a 1500 mile trip, all interstate, using 87 octane, I got 19mpg unloaded with the air on and doing 70 mph. On the return trip, loaded with a 600 pound load, I got 17 mpg, same conditions.

YMMV;)
 
I've checked both in town and highway mileage with my 2003 ZRX. I get right around 16 MPG city and just a bit over 20 MPG highway. And this is driving conservatively with the A/C running.

D....
 
2003 ZR2 with 3.73 gears burns about 16 litres/100km. If my math is any good that works out to about 14.7 miles per US gallon or 17.7 miles per Imp gallon. Lousy!
 
gas bad

i have a 2004 sonoma sls 4 wheel drive i only get 15 mpg not good
thinking of installing dual mufflers to see if that will bring up the mileage rlc
