I repeat, your assertion that is is physically impossible for billbears' car (or my car or Spktyr's car) to get better fuel economy at 70 MPH than at 55 MPH is nonsense.

I never made this claim. As you have repeatedly ignored or chosen to overlook, I have admitted that I did not make the proper exception for the class of car you drive. In the general sense, fuel economy is directly proportional to the horsepower developed by the engine which is regulated almost entirely by wind drag. This is absolute. You are out to prove something that has not been stated, or you bask in ignorance and are really proud of it.

You're amazing. You may be one of the most obtuse people I have ever encountered on FR.

Go look at your post #98 in this thread and then tell me you never made the claim.

There is something you obviously don't understand about posting comments online, Twinkletoes. The rest of us are completely unable to guess what you had in mind or what you were thinking (or not thinking) when you posted. We have to go on what you actually wrote. Holding us responsible for understanding what you meant to post is monumentally arrogant, not to mention stupid.
