I am only getting 24.2 mpg - I will admit I am traveling at 70 to 75 mph - I have yet to get any where near what others are getting - why is that? I purchased my 2009 LT in Nov of 2008 -

Cons: How would you improve 2009 Chevrolet Impala?
The silver plastic strip on the trunk looks and feels a bit cheap. The gear shift knob has the same silver plastic piece. I wonder if these and other parts will look nice in 3 years. (Warranty is ONLY 3 years).

2009 Chevrolet Impala Review:
My dealer sent me home with my new Impala with 3 of the four tires under inflated at 23 pounds. Also, the hood paint job has issues. This was corrected. As 200 miles approached the odometer, I noticed roughness in the handling. Now, at 700 miles odometer, the local Chevy shop determined that the front brake rotors are bad and are being replaced. I wonder if the back brakes are ok and if the brake pads are fine. This car has been carefully driven with no unusual weather. I am suspicious of Chevrolet quality, and I may take advantage of the return offer being presented.

Pros: What do you like about 2009 Chevrolet Impala?
This is my second Impala. I had a 2002 for seven years, so with 100,000 plus miles and no problems, I decided it was time for a new one, even though the 02 was in excellent condition. My 09 Impala is an LT, loaded with every extra including leather. There is nothing to dislike, but only to love. The Impala is a pleasure to drive on trips. I travel from Las Vegas to San Francisco once or twice a year and consistently get 31 miles to the gallon. Down the road at 65 mph the tac shows 1600 to 1700 rpm, so it purrs along with no strain. Pity those in smaller four cylinder cars turning up 3000 plus rpms.

Cons: How would you improve 2009 Chevrolet Impala?
Why mess with perfection.

2009 Chevrolet Impala Review:
I did a lot of research on every make and model, but the Impala had it all.
The V6 ( 211 hp and 214 lbs of torque at 4000 rpm) is plenty powerful and I got 30 mpg on my first 75 mile trip. (Mostly hwy)
I took my neighbors for a ride and they loved the car. The quiet and living room like interior was to their liking.
The seats were wide enough (being 6ft 3 in and 225lbs). The lumbar adjustment was great. And my knees didn't hit the steering wheel.
By the way I have the LT series. This series has the adjustable lumbar, alloy wheels, onstar for a year, sat radio for 3 months, compass, outside temp, average mph gauge and more.
