In reference of Your topic, would anybody tell me what to do with this terrible gas milege - my wife's car 2003 turbo just selebrated 1y.o., has 8000 miles on odo, k@n air f., k@n oil f., mobil 1, and she is definitly not f1 pilot. Sometimes, usualy when she need to wash it or pump the gas, i take it for a day for check drive - beauty runin' like cream-puff, but gas milege killin' all the pleasure - never seen nothing better than 11.8 mpg. Ironically we just sold her 96 suburban with approx.the same gas milege and were thinkin' that gt would be reasonably gas and money saver. Meanwile my 2002trans am ramair 5.7 averagin' 17.1 mpg. please any opinions, suggestions - deeply appreciated![V][:I]

Gee! I would say something is up. We have about 6000 miles on our 2003 GT now and my wife drives it mostly to and from work (about an 18 mile suburban round trip). She is averaging 22-23mpg. We have only made one extend hi-way trip with the car (when it had about 1000 miles) and got stuck in stop and go traffic for at least 45 minutes. It averaged just shy of 25 mpg.
