Gas mileage rant
Obviously gas mileage is becoming a big deal but I gotta say cars have improved very little since my Audi CQ was built. I get about 30-35mpg highway with a 2.3l 20v 5 cylinder. My wife gets about 40 with her new Honda Fit-- equipped with a rip-roaring 1.6l engine. What the hell?! The Audi weighs more, has AWD, doors that close like a vault and an 18 gallon tank (Fit has 10 gallon tank). So much for technology solving our problems...
