My bicycle costs me $0 to fill up. Plus I bet it goes faster. :ohsnap:
Volkswagen Golf/Jetta/etc with their little turbo diesel. They range from 55-60 mpg. A colleague of my Dad's runs one of these to work every day, and that's 55mpg while driving in town most of the way.
Anyways...
My ride is a 1994 Chevrolet Astro EXT. 4.3L V6, RWD, with a few custom options on it (visor, bug deflector, running boards, ventshades and a spoiler which looks silly on a van). However, it is currently sitting in 3 feet of snow drifts and is unlikely to be moving in the next day or two. I'll have to hitch a ride to College tomorrow unless they close it like they did today.
I'm waiting for someone to make fun of me for driving a minivan wannabe (it's got a truck frame underneath it, whereas minivans traditionally use a car frame). Someone can also laugh at me for being unable to attain 50mpg. Yeah, try 26mpg on the highway, and 18mpg in town.
And I have a 12' aluminum Harbercraft boat with oars. Its main purpose is to sit in the yard and oxidize until we finally go to a lake one of these millennia.
<-- VW Passat 2.0 Diesel TDI 120PS...and yes it owns all your American 320HP Pickup-Trucks in acceleration and highspeed. :awesome:
Only real opponents are the Japaneses...but I love Lexus and Toyota <3
This, but in red. Oh and plus the passenger seat has a small back rest
