Best milage I got was almost 28 on an all highway trip. Best my display has said was 29.9. Don't know how some of you guys get in the 30's. I drive very sensible and have gone though a whole tank without getting on it once. GMS1 didn't make it better or worst.
FYI, there are no canadian mpg's. lol. it's L/100km here and the lower the number you get here, the better mileage you get. I get about 7-9L/100km. which i think 7 is around 36 or something. But I have a hard time staying off the throttle so most of the time I end up at around 9 which is in the 20's.

IMPERIAL gallon...
1 US Gallon= 1.21 Imperial Gallon = 3.78 Liters
I travel...ALOT, the problem is your car is doing the MPG calculation in US Gallons, even cars sold in Canada. You must be calculating at the pump then.
My best so far was from Louisiana to Wisconsin, trip average of 37.8. Stock tune at the time, 37psi front 37 rear, windows down a bit at night, a/c during day, did the trip in nice weather middle of august.
Overall I average 26. I have seen 7.2mpg after a weekend at the track...heh. Anyone go to No Problem Raceway outside of New Orleans?

About the converting: Yes, the car uses US gallons and L/100. I think you can even switch to metric on US cars? Not too sure but I know you can switch to Imperial in a Canadian car even though the default is metric.

I don't think the imperial gallon is in Canada though, I think it's those whack ass Britt's is it not?
