Default Re: Gas mileage challenge

If you got 26+ plus out of an SRT6, you get the crown. The best I have been able to do is 24.1 (calculated) - I have a tendency to step on it too often. On the other hand, I completed a MI-CT-MI trip of 2500 miles last month and averaged 28.6 in the roadster. Nothing special other than new K&Ns. And I drove 95% highway, top down, at 70-75.

I know 4 mpg isn't much, but every little bit helps plus I wanted to enjoy the convertible. Next week I'll take a 700 mile RT to WI with the SRT6. If I can avoid the Chicago traffic, I'm sure I can push 25 mpg.
