My area of California has lots of hills which probably accounts for the lower mileage. But heh, 45!! I'm happy. 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). -- JF (who doesn't buy the globalists' argument that humans are causing significant climate change. It changes, sure. Always has. But just follow the money and see who profits from climate change hysteria.) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
