Seriously guy......run the test again...at highway speeds...on a level road (if you're idling down a mountain road with the shifter in neutral it doesn't really count)
Let me know what you come up with ...(eh).
dude are you smoking something ???? i said IF I USED the canaidian conversion it would be 40 mpg and thats exactly what dealers in canada DO

if you read my entire post you would see i get 29.45 sometimes 30 sometimes 28 all depends on my driving

ok the other day i ran 200 kms thats 124.28 miles

i averaged 8 liters per 100 kms

8 ltr's = 2.11 gallons
100 kms = 62.14

so i avg'ed 29.45 miles per gallon not bad EH!!!! now if i were using the canadian gallon 4.54 liters per gallon it would be more like 40 mpg

Re: gas mileage.

well same here, I havent gotten much better. when I drove the car like a granny and accelerated very slowly and didnt speed and used my cruise even at residentail speeds, I would get like 350 miles out of a tank and only got like 24MPG. its sucks but if I wanted to keep my MPG up I should have kept my old 5-speed 4 banger.

Dude...
The dealer stickers in Canada are based on an Imperial gallon...Transport Canada along with the manufacturer arrive at a city/highway mpg and those are the numbers Canadians see on the window sticker.
Nobody has EVER claimed 40 mpg (except you and now it sounds like you're backing off a bit)
So...back to your claim....You claim 29.45 mpg using a US gallon.....correct? Even if I believed your claim (and I dont) 29.45 X 1.2 = 35 mpg. .....you are still 5 mpg short here...what are YOU smoking??
Do you even own an Impala?....lets see some REAL pics of this bad boy if it exists...not come cartoon wheeled rendition of a "MONSTER" Impala.
Thanks for the laugh..you've made my day!

yo this is your 16th post and heres the conversion fucker
8 liter = 2.1133764 gallon [US, liquid]

Volume Conversion

and if for one second i thought i had to prove myself to a nOOb it wouldnt be you. i know several people who avg around the 35 MPG mark as i have seen them numbers several times so go looking for someone elses posts to flame ... Oh just to let you know most dealers push the 38 mpg numbers on the impala although its not rated for it it is possible

Merlen Lock it
i have too much going on to give this little shit the time of DAY

Do me a favour....Go to YOUR link as given above. Punch in 29.45 mpg US gallon. Now click the button and see that 29.45 mpg (US) is equal to 35.3 mpg (imp). just like I told you. Now, I can see that I've ruffled your feathers a bit (and you gotta know how much amusement I take out of this) but I wont lower myself to your level by calling you names.I just want you to admit to the rest of the readers here that your 40 mpg claim is BS...thats all. Just suck it up and eat a little crow for us and we will all have a laugh and move on.
You have seen high 6's and low 7's when and where??
Friday night poker?? Dude , you are making my day..LOL

Monsta BOY,
I have not been the "ass" in this debate. You have made a claim (40 mpg) that you cant back up. You have been nothing but an idiot all through this debate and from reading your other posts I can see that you are a semi-literate moron (Dude...You can't even compose a sentence!) who makes unreal claims about any subject that you post on. I doubt you work on cars (or even own one) and certainly you have a limited idea about what makes them work. Your cut and paste post with all the mods you intend to do was laughable and when another member questioned you your response was "FUCK OFF".
In the future be careful what you post because there are people here who will call BULLSHIT on you and make you squeal like the little bitch that you are.
By the way...check my avatar.....real close...... Now I've got a little cartoon wheeled Impala beside my posts too!
Back to the sandbox sonny....you have no place here where people actually know cars!
