What is your average MPG in your Cobalt PER TANK OF GAS
This is the # your DIC shows, not what you get using the "old-school" math method.
I'm not talking about the one time you reset it going 62 on your trip to TN and got 47 mpg, I mean what is your usual average week to week (or fillup to fillup)

On average I run a combined 26 MPG or 8.9L/100KM but straight freeway driving I get 6L/100km or 40 MPG!!
That is with a 2.9 pulley 42 LB injectors and a Trifecta tune. Oh and a slipping clutch.....

DIC is telling me I'm +/- 37mpg depending on how hard I push it. Just filled the tank yesterday and my own math came out to just under 34mpg. Mix of city/highway as half my daily commute is city streets, and the other half is a 65mph cruise down the freeway.

I own a 2009 cobalt tc with only gm stage II update to computer with cai. Just drove from baltimore to budds creek for the import vs dom drag race. Normal driving, some wot runs on the highway, and a few stops in traffic idling waiting to get in parking lot of race track and leaving. average was 30.2.
