Good thing someone mentioned that. My 08 LTZ 3.6l DOES get 30 on the highway. So far it hovers between 30 and 31 for most of my (all-highway, nearly all speedlimit / cruise control) driving, with a best of 32.1 for the last tank. Mix in more than 5% or so of 'city' driving, and it drops a bit, but even so my worst tank so far was over 25 mpg (26 is the EPA highway number).
