Who where unlimited mpg?

>buying an automatic, v6 dego-american """""muscle car"""'

They're rated at 31 highway mpg thanks mainly to the 8-speed tranny. Only 292 hp from 3.6 liters though.

305 with the Rallye
>only

Al Gore must hate you

Camaro gets 335 from a 3.6

Please try again.

Whoa 30 more? Too bad it's pig fat disgusting and the only thing you can put in three back seat is your wife's son

about 43 mpg on average on my golf 7 2.0 tdi.
Is that alright? A little bit of daily beating is included

my lifted truck on 35x12.50s.

Z: 23
Miats: 25

The fucking Z has over double the horsepower of the Miata, weighs half a ton more and only gets two less mpg

>tfw my 170hp subaru 2.5 only gets about 215 miles out of around 13 gallons
To be fair I was beating the shit out of it, italian tuneups every day. I could get more out of the tank since it's 15.9 gallons but the low fuel light comes on and the gauge reads below empty with about 2 gallons left in the tank. It's more about smiles per gallon to me anyway, gas is cheap enough right now that I don't feel bad about getting shit empeegees.

>Literally believing those shitty feel good hug box mpg computers

Calculate it out when you buy gas dumbshit

Why do miats get such poor gas mileage

Short gear ratios

The Challenger I drove did almost as well, but I did drive it through mountains and like an asshole. Still impressed me tho

Because they're mostly all DOHC without VVT so they're pumping in twice as much fuel all the time. Plus, no matter how hard you drive one, you can't get less than 22 MPG. I average 22 and I drive like an idiot everywhere in mine.

That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard

Metric rpm is pretty unpatriotic.

>1400 rpm
>Not 63/34 feet-hour clockturns

Well desu senpai desu senpai desu senpai its the truth

I drive like 0-60 basically every light and i keep it in a low gear all the time just so i always have power and i think the lowest i ever got was like 21 mpg
i get like 29 highway tho

its not geared properly for the highway
at 82mph you're turning over like 5k in top gear

>it's the truth
>>DOHC without VVT so they're pumping twice as much fuel all the time

r u stupid ??????????

Do you not realize how retarded that is?

Twice as much fuel as what? What's your base for measuring an amount of fuel?

The answer to the guy's original question is because they have short gearing.

> miat

miata* whats with people spelling that shit wrong on this board.

> not knowing how air/fuel ratios work

Because they think it's cute to say Miats instead of Miata

Bunch of slack jawed faggots

it's a meme you dip

Meme car is cringe car.

Until you know, you drive one and find out its a large amount of fun for what is essentially a two seated commuter car.

shorter gear ratios are there to keep the engine in a slightly higher rpm and allow for operation through a narrow range to make up for no torks, it also keeps the engine in its best power range which for a NA tiny ass 4 cylinder is shit hence the shorter gears.

I've driven one, to me fun isnt winding the engine through the rpms, fun is having a meaty engine and when I put the foot down regardless of rpm it pulls through. I mena when your cruising in over drive at 60 mph in a 4 banger spinning like 2500+ rpm and put your fott down and you can hear the engine struggling turns me off. Its sad.

I have gotten > 700km on one tank in the same car

If you drive and shift like a grandma you can go so far (still doing the speed limit)

and you have about 80-100km once the light comes on if you drive right

I was around 6.6-7.0 L/100k

God you fags ate so butthurt.

Just think about this

>larger sedan with 292 hp
>larger sedan with good mpgs
>larger sedan with a v6

Sure other cars have more power or higher mpgs but these numbers were unheard of just a short time ago.

>We just got out of the period of 170 hp v8s with 18mpg

>v6
>poor fag

Pick 2

But judging by your DTE on an almost full tank you're really averaging roughly 20mpg less.

2.4l pickup
pic is from obd2 scanner report
I've read people getting 30mpgs on these trucks
how?

Nobody knows what truck you have Autist....

03 tacoma 4x2 2.4l

WHAT THE LITERAL FUCK

You mean the dummy and signal lights built into there?

I don't trust Dodge's computers desu, but some cars like my IS350 match my manual calculation.

>Dodge build quality
AYYY LMAO

From the top going clockwise

>e-brake light
>airbag light
>seatbelt light
>left turn signal light
>idk

Might have been hooning from a previous fill-up

>poorfag

How's your $2500 shitbox

> V6

that looks like a literal boat

Or he just reset the avg mpg while on the highway. Those Chargers get -20mpg in city driving, him driving for a couple minutes on the highway is no way indicative to his average mpg, especially compared to the DTE which isn't reset on the fly.

>pic related, what my econobox says when I do what OP did

like every single vehicle ever produced, it depends on how you drive
if you drive around a city in 1st gear, you will get crappy MPG
if you drive on the highway in your highest gear and only slow down to refuel, you will get good MPG

>>idk
it will just be a general warning light

>Charger owner calling a Camaro pigfat

come_on_now.png

Only comes in automatic

ITT butthurt busriderd that can't afford OPs car

>305 HP and 31 MPG out of a NA V6

Stay mad friends
Pic related

>only 292hp
Am I the only one that thinks thats decent for a charger with a v6? I mean I know everyone says to go v8 no matter what, but if you want good mileage out of an engine that can still put out some power I think this is impressive
