Hi all,
It's funny; I was just thinking about an hour before I accidentally found this site that I wished there was an online forum dealing primarily with modifying vehicles for fuel economy. All the other ones I have joined focus on squeezing more power and speed out of vehicles which usually results in worse fuel economy.
Anyway, I have scoured the web for information on the MPG ratings of older pre-1985 vehicles. The fueleconomy.gov website only goes back to 1985, with some text-file downloads going back to 1978. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks.
