How much gas per mile you get in a 85 Chevy Caprice?

The gas mileage of a 1985 Chevy Caprice varied significantly depending on the engine, transmission, and driving conditions. There wasn't a single MPG figure. However, you could generally expect somewhere between 14 and 20 miles per gallon (mpg). The smaller V6 engines might achieve closer to the higher end of that range, while the larger V8s would likely be closer to the lower end or even slightly below.

Keep in mind that this is just an estimate. Actual mileage will depend on factors like:

* Engine size: A larger engine will generally get worse gas mileage.

* Transmission type: Automatic transmissions tend to use slightly more fuel than manuals (though the Caprice was almost certainly automatic).

* Driving style: Aggressive acceleration and high speeds significantly reduce fuel economy.

* Vehicle condition: Proper maintenance (tune-ups, etc.) impacts MPG.

* Terrain: Driving uphill or in stop-and-go traffic will lower your mileage.

To get a more precise estimate, you would need to specify the exact engine (e.g., 267ci V6, 305ci V8, 350ci V8) and transmission type.
