does it? The Toyota Priapus gets worse combined cycle mpg than a
straight engine.

Even for city driving?

The only thing that counts in the real world is total miles per total
fuel consumed. Splitting it up into bits is of little utility.

So you'd say a car well suited for high speed motorway use will also be
just fine for use in heavy town traffic? And the other way round?

Always trying to put words into the mouths of others.

Thanks for proving you just jump in without any understanding of a point.

It was you not understanding tabby's point.


I'll try and explain it to you. Total fuel consumed against total miles
travelled is totally meaningless without knowing the type of journey.

Irrelevant to what tabby was saying.
