Also the 25MPG on the Cobalt... Most of us here mean the COBALT XFE, not the regular Cobalt. Check my folder on profile and you can see what I get. I have never got less than 34 MPG.

This is honestly what I have been getting on average for the past 2 weeks. Some days it drops a tenth or two, and other days I gain those numbers back. This number below is a total MPG from the moment I started driving the car last July. It is not just the mileage for one tank or one trip. It reflects the over all mileage I have got.

Again, this is a Cobalt LS Coupe XFE with a driver that has spent much time driving in EOC whenever possible. If I was to hod rod this car and take it 100MPH and do jack-rabit stops and gos I might get crappy 25mpg too. One has to use common sense when driving and look far ahead and anticipate as much as one can while using the hypermilling skills from this site.
