“Yes, I know a lot of people on FR are skeptical, but with engines now starting to get direct fuel injection and soon a really radical design called homogeneous combustion compression-ignition (HCCI), a small car could get over 50 mpg on the EPA 2008 test, possibly as early as 2015.”

Oh I am so impressed.

My 1972 Citroen 2CV got over SIXTY mpg.

yes, but totally no power, couldn’t even make it to 60 mph, and an instrument panel crude almost to an extreme. No thanks.
