2003 VW Jetta TDI. No expensive batteries to replace. Best MPG= 55. Worst
was 45 and that was @ 85mph into a headwind. No hybrids for me yet. I hit
105mph passing two big 18 wheelers. Good power and good MPG.


There's a guy who was selling his Honda Insight a few weeks ago
on eBay. He had a LIFETIME average of 81 MPG, over 130,000
miles. I assume he was doing some kind of hypermiling
technique, but that is VERY impressive. There's a guy who is
known as the "king of hypermiling" who jumped into an unmodified
Honda Insight provided by a friend, and did 181 MPG on a 20 mile
test course in a competition! Holy COW! There's this auto X
prize to come up with a 100 MPG car, and it already exists!
