Whats the average gas mileage around town you guys get? Thinking of picking 1 of these up but i can get a 1 year old malibu for around the same price...its bigger, has the 2.4/4cyl...and i don't have to be relegated to get the 6spd manual, so the wife can drive the 'bu.

The Cruze comes with a 6 speed auto or manual.....I'm 99% sure that you aren't forced into a manual with any trim line on the Cruze.

^ i know that, but if i am getting a 1.8, its going to be a stick...fun factor and little more pep. The 'bu's only come automatic.

First tank, with gas milage being the last thing in mind/not caring about it, I got about 28. My dad's 08 malibu with the 2.4 gets about 18.

that's impressive. that should increase substantially too after weather improves and motor breaks in.
