ZBroadbent 11-21-2009, 08:55 AM Im lookin into one of these, im a jeep fan i have a wrangler now but my wife just got a solstice gxp and i love the way it drives so i want something with more power. I really like the jeep brand and the gcsrt8 but I am just concerned on the gas, how is it on gas??:confused: mrkrabs318 11-21-2009, 09:06 AM if you are concerned about gas mileage than the srt8 probably isn't for you. Depending on how you drive and your daily commute, you probably won't do any better than 16mpg. Most people who get this beast including myself wanted it for the power and really don't mind filling up every week. srt8Canada 11-21-2009, 09:13 AM Top ten worst vehicle on gas and emissions. Kermit the frog will roll over in his grave. YogiSRT8 11-21-2009, 09:40 AM Gas milage is bad...no sugar coating about it. QuickOne 11-21-2009, 11:08 AM Gas milage is bad...no sugar coating about it. Agreed. Any light you want to shine on it, it's not good. However...The defendant's lawyer says: There are MANY vehicles out there with worse mileage and less power. Real world mpg on many vehicles is the same 16 mpg. Heck, my wife's paltry RX 330 gets 19mpg on average. Meanwhile my 5.6l Titan gets 14.5. So if you're really concerned about 5 mpg difference, then things like Tires, insurance and oil changes will FAR out weigh the cost difference and you should consider another vehicle. WS6TA 11-21-2009, 11:38 AM really don't mind filling up every week. Only if you do not drive a lot. I average about 220 miles per fill up. I most average around 12mpg combined. The regular Jeeps (Hemi & 4.7's) average 13-15. jps043 11-21-2009, 12:19 PM Yeah when considering a Jeep SRT8, gas mileage should not be a concern because we all know the outcome, its AVG MPG = poor haha.

For me it's about smiles per gallon, not miles per gallon. Driving this Jeep is a treat to be savored every day. king 11-22-2009, 05:49 AM na, not for you dude. maybe a flex-Tahoe:eek: that might work better for you. | ||
