Even more impressive is the comparison of MPG between old school V8s and new school V8s.

The Chrome is not the satin chrome or the bright chrome, unless they changed the chrome on the 2007.

Take it out and flog it so the piston rings seat well, that way it will have better gitty-up throughout its rental lifetime and therefore be a good ambassador of HHRness to the rental customers...

I honestly think at least some of the V6 mileage gains are actually due to transmission gearing.

Actually they will get the same mileage. Manufacturers and the Gov. came up with new method of reporting. Kind of like the HP rating under 06' standard and 07'.

But, it's only in the city ratings.
