I get very annoyed at the (many) car commercials I see on TV these days.
There are several that bill their cars as having “surprisingly good milage”, but the fine print says they only get 24 miles per gallon.


Over the last two weekends driving to New Jersey, my 10 year old, 234000 miles driven, station wagon got 37 miles per gallon with me, my wife, the sword troupe’s tent, all the swords, my armor, a cooler of stuff and luggage in it.

My old Saturn sedan got more than 40 on the highway.

It bothers me that 24 is defined as “surprisingly good milage”.
