dont forget about all those weight penalties due to crash safety and stuff. and the fact that the model T couldnt drive on the highways, or start itself without a crank.

Just for future reference... The original model T weighed in at around 1200 pounds and the later year model T's with all steel construction weighed 1500lbs.... In any case, on a flat road, constant velocity - there's no weight penalty :/
