I've been told that I need to reprogram my ECM/PCM to get better gas mileage. Anybody have thoughts on that?

Only suggestion I have is go back to driving that BORING Saturn if you want that mieage....

LOL. Funny thing is that the Camaro is my wife's car. She just doesn't know how to drive a manual transmission, and hasn't taken the time to learn, so she's driving the Saturn around.

I don't mind that one bit! She's in a safer car, and I get to have fun driving the Camaro! I keep offering to teach her how to drive it, but she's always either "too busy" or "doesn't want to right now." Oh well :0)
