This should not be anything surprising.

Ask Yamma about her VW TDI - we get mileage a helluva lot better than any other cars out there

yeah - on average, if I'm sitting in traffic for a while I can get about 42mpg. Standard commute is about 48-52mpg. Once when I was running with a donut on the back wheel and driving 60mph, I averaged my record 62.1mpg.

I towed a 900lb trailer to GA and back a couple weeks ago and amazingly still got between 36-38mpg in it.

Would be bomb to get that 70mpg they are getting across the pond! :seasix:

I wonder if you can buy just the motor with all the controls on this side of the pond? That would be a great retrofit. :yesnod:
