If you are hauling 4 people in a Metro, then each person is getting 4X43 MPG individually or 172 MPG per person.

I can't do that in either of my cars, although in the Echo I have averaged close to 50 with 4 fairly large men in the car (about 800 pounds).

I didn't know a Metro could haul that much weight! All the more reason to not add any more weight to that poor car

. Been messing with cars for 40 years and I just learned something new.

My hat is off to you Nerys, for being one of the most efficient people movers on this planet.

dcb;

My Insight does not have lean burn, because it is an auto (CVT), but it is a SULEV.
