The VX is going to get parked after this tank. I found out her friends in school make fun of the Green Bean, so I'll drive my 2000 Civic with swapped JDM B16 for a few months until she gets her drivers license. Believe it or not... I have gotten 35 mpg's with that B16 engine and short gearing. Usually about 30 MPG without hyper-miling it.
Oh... just bought the wife a used Prius... wow... what a car! I may buy another. 315,000 miles and drives like it only has 50K! I drove one with 30k miles and didn't really seem to ride any better. Highway miles certainly are easy on a car.
