Some years back, I read an article in an auto mag about a local auto club mpg economy contest in California. LA, I think. Anyway, they used the total weight: auto, passengers, cargo, etc. in their calcs. It wasn't about the rational use of a vehicle, just to see who could move the most weight for a given amount of gas. The guy who won had an old VW 4 dr sedan loaded up with junk and kids.
