RS mileage

[Macehammer]

For what?

 

[Red_RS]

Whoop! Got a call today!!

Are you getting a check???

 

[Insanika]

Are you getting a check???

Yup!!

 

[Red_RS]

Yay!!! I'm glad they are showing that they value you as a customer.

 

[Red_RS]

This is when I got to work Monday morning. Since then I had to run the wipers and defogger, carried a couple hundred pounds of scuba gear about 35 miles, and did a bunch of city running. I'm down to 36.9 - still not bad.

 

[Insanika]

Yay!!! I'm glad they are showing that they value you as a customer.

The call was vey generic and they acted like this would be grave and shocking news to me. Not sure if this is a result of my prodding or just that my number finally came up.

 

[RS Turbo]

Cool Glad it worked out for Ya!

 

[Macehammer]

Ok why am I the only one not getting a check?

 

[RS Turbo]

Because it only affected Manual Trans RS units!

 

[Insanika]

She said it "affected less than 100 units"

 

[Red_RS]

Yes, that's what the letter said too.

 

[Macehammer]

Fine: since I am not getting a check, I am left assuming that my RS is better than all of yours. Faster, better MPG, sexier, lower, bigger engine (w/turbo), extra 7th gear, more legroom, better soundsystem, best color, CAI that mysteriously draws air from Antarctica, Maybe Labor or Eric can fill in all of the good stuff that I am forgetting that I am assuming I have....

It just must be better, and hence, no rebate check.

 

[RS Turbo]

You just keep telling yourself that! LOL

Mileage

So far I'm getting 27.6 mpg with my 2013 RS 6sp. Filled up today when fuel guage dropped to last bar. Took 10 gallon to fill up. No highway driving yet. Love this car.

I recently went to a local regional auto show in Davenport IA. On display there was a white 2013 Sonic RS 6 sp manual with the incorrect mileage sticker applied. Think of how many potential buyers could have been deceived by having this vehicle on display with the wrong window sticker information.

 

[Macehammer]

But the car is still great....

 

[Papasonic]

But the car is still great....

That I don't disagree with. The RS is a fantastic little vehicle; and it's made right here in the USA! :banana:

 

[Red_RS]

Has anyone received their check yet?? I'm getting impatient. :/

 

[Red_RS]

Maybe I should get caught behind tractors doing 25mph more often. Too bad these numbers won't last.
