Damn man that seems pretty bad MPG. You sure that is what the correct MPG is?

My shot in the dark guess would be something like 18-20mpg combined, so it doesn't seem terribly far off, especially if you've been having some fun with it.
I'm getting about 21-22, same as the Monte Carlo, but would probably be more like 24-25 if I had more highway miles during the week. And I've only used 'eco-pro' mode once and immediately hated it.

It actually seems to work quite well as I've been trying it a few days, especially with the 4:10 gears which are going to kill my MPG anyway. 1st gear is just reeruned unless I'm trying to accelerate as fast as I can from a light. I am starting in 2nd gear always and it's smooth. At about 25 MPH I can shift straight to 4th gear from 2nd and ride the RPMs at about 1750 at 30 MPH and hit 1500 RPMs at 40 MPH in 5th gear. No engine lugging what so ever. Remember, this is a 5 gear car, not 6 like many think it is. I'm doing this many times when cruising around town to decrease the gas usage when I know I may be stopping up ahead or a long line of slower traffic in front. And on many surface streets. Sure I can crank it up and have fun sometimes but sometimes cruising is just as good and using less gas isn't always a bad thing. Thoughts about shift skipping? Quote:

I've been thinking about tuning my 2014 Malibu at some point. Has anyone ever used this company on any car? |

Less than 24 hours. Then its off to a plant 20 miles away for the SCAT Pack striping. Back to the plant for rail shipment.
