I think I got one from you last year so I bought my Vibe, thanks again. Now I am trying to persuade some of my friends, who are interested in Malibu, to buy a American car, since I personally don't like Japs. So if you still have these coupons, can I get one or two? Thanks a lot.

My Vibe used 33L gas for 390km, while 300 is highway 90 local.According to official number, it should use around 27L, that is a huge difference. I have less than 1000 on my Vibe right now, so is this the reason? How much do you use per 100km on average?
