The local Chevy dealer in Mt Sterling Kentucky has one Cruise on display, I am un-sure if it is for sell or looks right now. I asked the sales lady why is it reports online report an EPA of 40 to 42 MPg (I more often read 40 MPG) yet the sticker says 35mpg, and quick as a whip she says :" Have you looked under that hood at that 2.8 engine?" The sticker claimed 35 MPG- a big disappointment for me UNTIL I realize this was actually a FAST car and it might of even been one of the turbo charged models. But I still rather see an epa of 40 to 42 MPG, but it seems ALL of the GM dealers in this state stock POWER cars and trucks- I could not locate a single XFE Cobalt in this state in 2009 and thus I had to have my favorite dealer order me an XFE from another state, and that dealer had like another $2,000 cash back because it had sat on their lot for ten months. People in my neck of the woods always think power before fuel economy. I bet when GM starts cranking out all of their XFE like Cruise cars that still no dealer will stock them here. I feel like a fish out of water in this state in many ways.
