You think your gas milage is bad??

You all need to quit whining about your gas milage. Check this article out:

http://www.wired.com/news/autotech/0...w=wn_tophead_1

Basically, people with hybrid cars are finding that their gas milage isn't even coming close to what was stated by the car companies (although this is more of a fault of the EPA (again)). Consumer Reports is showing that the MPG is around 60% of what is stated!!! So you can say your gas milage sucks cause it is like 3-4 miles below what the manufacture said, but these people have it even worse!!

Enjoy!

wow... claiming 47/48 mpg and getting 31 sucks way worse than claiming 18/24 and getting 15/21.

EPA needs to change their ways, soon.
