Default Worst MPG Ever!

I'm getting 3.6 Miles Per Gallon! I win, it's like golf right?

I'd like to see anyone beat that!


Compare your lives to mine then kill yourselves.

Maybe take it out of 4-Lo and release the parking brake?


Holy crap that's bad. I bet it would get like 1 gallon per mile on the track!

I've been considering getting something newer. I've been looking at IS300s, RX-8s, and Ducati Monsters.

My lawnmower might get worse mpg. It doesn't have a speedometer though so I can't calculate
