You don't count the vehicle weight unless you're delivering the vehicle to someone and leaving it there.
I'll round myself up to 200 lbs, or 0.1 tons. With boots, coat, coffee mug and pockets full of stuff it's probably not rounding up much. My annual mileage is consistent enough that I'll call it even. Logged annual mpgs are 42.9, 45.5 and 44.4, averaging 44.2666... mpg. I'll round that down to 44.25.
So commuting solo at 44.25 mpg, I'm shipping freight at 4.425 mpg per ton. Not as impressive as a train, or even the 5.3 mpgt I'd get in a Prius (if I got EPA), but it beats the pants off the 2.93 mpgt I was able to get in my Subaru.
