Note: I think the people who replied to him were being honest I'm just saying it's semi-honest because not everyone is getting 13-16mpg in the city (I'm one of them) so I thought I'd say something to the poor guy...lol...all he wants is an RX8...lol

HHmm now I just have to figure out how to connect my video out of my PDA to my Navi, and can have realtime info on the Navi about my car functions, or better yet make a conversion program to graphically convert the data into some type of gauge like-look . . . hhmmm . . .

oh yeah thats exactly what i mean and thats what the epa numbers are a measure of. and i even pull my foot up away from the pedal real close to the seat so i can get comfy. probably should keep it closer to the pedal for safety but my knee has other ideas.

Well, my real problem isn't the cost of fuel or the distance I have to drive. I only have to drive about 5 miles to work and around town, which is a small town. I tell you, my real problem is a "feeling of guilt" about driving a car that gets bad gas mileage when I'm one of these people that keeps saying we need to move away from gasoline into alternative fuel engines. I feel like such a Blasphemer!
