well actually I don't think you CAN get 13mpg in that car. maybe 13mpg INSTANT reading maybe
Darrell's point is that he is telling you that 13 mpg was an average reading, not just some random "instant" MPG value, as suggested.

Nerys: careful about insisting so strongly that people must be wrong. Your experience isn't everyone's experience. Lots to learn from the members here.
