For example, the theoretical max mpg's on my Honda fit are only 54
mpg!! (at 65 mph.)
Of which I realized 46.4 the other weekend.
Which sure beats the 15 mpg I get in my g-d 2004 pickup.

Really an eye-opener--at least for my good eye.


What you don't realize...you could have bought any VW with a TDI in it and
would have been getting 55-58 mpg _all the time_.
