Fuel consumption not really a issue, just wanting first hand experince on what to expect.....Didn't think about the premium fuel being required. I guess when I'm thinking of buying a car thats one of the questions I always have. The salesman trying to sell me the 300 said it would get 24-25 hiway..The salesman trying to sell me a GranPrix said the 300 would only get 18-20..Therefore the question.................

I have a Chevy Blazer. Its smaller, lighter and a V6 and it only gets 20 MPGs with hiway driving. The Tahoe that I use to have got even worse gas mileage.
So the 300 C will get about the same I guess.
