Don't disagree with you. GM typically has lower real world FE than the sticker. Cruze ECO is the only one that I've talked with people that actually get it. Of course they are likely driving for MAX FE to get it. I know our Cruze gets 32 highway when I'm driving in my normal style. I'd have to drive 61 mph to get the EPA sticker............NOT!!!
