25 and you're not happy ? I'd kill for that.
I'm averaging about 18.
My 400 horse Corvettes get close to 30 hwy with the manual tranny.
If the G would come with a 6 speed automatic, that would improve mpg a lot.

I don't understand what difference it makes saving 5, 20, even 50 dollars per month on gas makes... if you are so concerned about spending money on gas then don't drive a car, walk. My dad had a GMC Denali too and that was something which would worry a person about gas, full tank 120L = 500km lol (roughly 40 gallons = 320 miles). My G eats exactly half of that amount, full tank 60L and range over 500km...
25mpg! have you ever owned a V-8? I have an old truck as well as my G, it has a 350 V-8 I get 12mpg on the freeway at best. . .talk about V-8 mileage. . .
at 25mpg you ought to be ashamed making this post!
drive a prius. . .ah i laugh every time i see a grown man in one of those
but hey at least hes saving money on gas and the environment huh
