Stay within posted speed limits. The faster you drive, the more fuel you use. For example, driving at 65 miles per hour (mph), rather than 55 mph, increases fuel consumption by 20 percent. Driving at 75 mph, rather than 65 mph, increases fuel consumption by another 25 percent.


RIIIGHT, yeah, so if i'm getting 40 mpg at 55 mph, i'll get 35 mpg at 65, and if i'm going 75 i'll get 26.25 mpg? That's the most retarded thing I've ever read. They're badmouthing these companies for making exhorbitant claims, and then they turn around and do it themselves.

Wow, I love our Federal Government.
