Mech,

You've attacked me before for my choice of cars. Pretty disingenuous of you to attack me, and then claim others are bringing down this thread by attacking others. Everyone here runs what they brung. You don't walk on holier ground for bragging that your car rates #11 on the overall all-time list of cars. All it proves is you paid someone else to squeeze a smaller motor scooter engine into a tinnier aluminum sardine can, and you don't mind spewing NOX to pollute our air when you're in obsolete lean burn.

If anything, it proves you're a slacker for not putting any effort except money into your mpg effort. You're no different than the elitists who buy a Prius and drive it down the highway at 75 mph, holding your nose higher than anyone else on the highway. Big deal. I'm a lot more impressed with people who put an effort into getting better mpg, not someone who buys his way into it. Especially when that someone keeps on bragging about how much better mpg his purchase gets than the others in this thread.
