Heavy Hitter in FE game

Looking through the garage here are the heavy hitters. Going strictly on % EPA because it not always about the big numbers. I used 70% as the cut off.

It's a pretty interesting list and not what I would of expected.

Ugly- Celica- GT 70.4%

The metro experience- Metro 74.8%

2003 Cavalier -Cavalier 112.3%

Blackfly- Metro 72.5%

DOHCtor Green MPG -Saturn 82.1%

Camryaro -Camry- 73.6%

PaleCivic - Civic DX 101.6%

Aerocivic -Civic CX 70.6%


Great job guys.

Well, at two tanks into slowing down, I'm at around 50%. Hopefully I'll get better with a Scangauge II.

Do we use the new or old epa estimates here? I'm using the old ones right now.

update: after looking, it seems most of the others are using the new estimates. I changed mine to the new numbers. My %epa is higher now.
