And then, of course, there's the LS460 ...
Every time we go on the road, I easily top 30 mpg at cruising speeds over 70.
And people think V8's are automatically gas guzzlers. There are tons of compact cars with 4-cylinders that don't get mileage this good.

Yeah, and only about 1650 rpm at 70. That 8th gear is good for a lot!
