you'd probably have to leave cruise on 85+ to get less than 20mpg...lol
I tried and failed...21.1mpg

I've never gotten less than 24 MPG, even with a lot of local driving.

31.1 MPG on 1,051 highway miles on cruise control set at 71 MPH in an HHR SS Automatic, 2 full tanks of gas, 93 octane pure highway driving from NC to NJ and back,
POST GM Performance Tune upgrade.

All I can say is im very impresses, and mostlikely attribute it to a slightly the slightly higher boost levels (-2 to -5 psi) the car cruises at now after the GM Tune. More air mixed in with the same amount of fuel gives a bigger explosion with more horsepower. Kinda like Blacksmith 101, use the bellows to put more air in the fire to create a hotter fire!
