Best year/model
 

Right now I have a 99 and I like it, cept I am havin troubles with this one in particular. Anyway, among other things that have happened to my car prior to my ownership, I get shatty MPG. bout 16 in town easy driven. I am lookin at tradin it in, and I want to know what the best model/year for MPG is.

should all be the same year wise... however, a smaller motor will give you better MPG so go with the ecotec which is like 02-04 I believe.

maybe you need a tune-up, and i heard seafoam helps.

do you have the 4 cyl or the 6 cyl right now? If its the 4, you shouldn't be getting quite that bad. IF you want mileage, get an alero witht the ecotec.

Mmmm Best years for the Alero.

I'd say anything from 99 to 2004 :lol:

^lmfao!

Newer would be better IMO. the parts are newer, in better conditon, usually less miles. If i got another alero i would go with an 03-04. Coupe. teehee =D

its about the ecotec baby! 550+km to a tank, oh yeah.

^^ really? thats it?
I get that with my 3400 :)

well I do haul a 600lb ATV from time to time :)
Be honest, I'm not exactly sure what I get, that was just a guessedament.

I get that with my 3400 V6!!Hell, I get over 650Km to a full tank WITHOUT going into the reserve.

If you only get 16 in town with easy driving you're definition of easy driving is a little off, or there's something wrong.

Alright, well now I'm gonna have to find out what i'm getting. :p

Don't lay on the gas and go the speed limit.

Its a 2.4 and the car I am sure had a couple scrapes in its past. The garages around here do not seem to know what they are doing, so I try to stay away from them.

I was thinkin ecotec and I want a little newer with less miles anyway

You could have a problem with an injector, or possibly the coil cover.

Damn, Im only getting roughly 450km with my 2.4 :(

I dont know what KM is in miles but on easy driving i cant get her over 250 miles to the tank.

250 Miles = 402.336 KM

I get 180-220 usually, but like I said the car has other issues as well as 155k on it

Well since my fuel gauge decided to stop working again im getting 300 miles at half a tank:p I have ran out of gas at 340 mile the first time it quite working so when its at half i fill it up. V6
