Speaking of- why does the corvette always have a higher gas mileage rating, its always one point higher? Also why don't get stuck with the gas guzzler tax like mustangs, which also get worst mileage.
Corvettes are a lot lighter and more aerodynamic than F-body cars. Also, it was my understanding that the CAGS system on the 6-speed cars is how they avoided the gas guzzler tax. Auto's still had it though.
