Way to go Ben.

I am envious of the lean burn. For the type of driving I do (predominantly driving with load at moderate speeds down rural highways) I'd be far better off with lean burn or a small diesel than my thirsty 1.0L regular gasser.

Hmmm... 1.5L Honda VX motor in a Firefly? You're putting one at the curb soon, aren't you?
