I always love how people are smart enough to know the 30% utilization thing but not smart enough to figure out where it comes from and what it means. Never mind 99% + is burned in the combustion chamber of any modern vehicle...that number is of no value when when 70% is wasted. By using a fuel vapor system, you can burn up to 99% + instead of 30%!! Oh Heck Yea!!!

So if a car is getting 33MPG burning 99% of the fuel 99% of the time, and it's only using 30%....Then....It should get 100MPG if it burns 90% cause 90 ÷ 30 = 3 and 3 X 33 is almost 100!!! See, the math does work.
