you dont worry about it, but it sure is nice filling up less often..

use that money on food, or something else..

even if it is only 1-2 mpg over older models....it's still something

Yea, alot of us muscleheads don't shop for cars like these according to their MPG ratings, but at the same time I can't think of anyone who wouldn't want to get better mileage with their HP if they could. Plus you just know that to get those ratings these new motors are being tuned fairly conservatively.....meaning tat there's gonna be some power to be had with aftermarket tuning. It's a win win, really.
