More MPG is great.  I wonder, though, if there are studies done on how much
energy it takes to make a car from start to finish.  I figure I'm probably
saving a bunch of energy that way (by not going out and buying a new car
when the old one works fine).  My Honda Accord has 287K miles, and I'm going
for at least 400K.  Keeping a paid-for car sure beats buying an expensive
one that gets higher MPG.  And one that gets decent mileage (28-30 MPG).

the money and see who profits from climate change hysteria.)
