Why don’t we have a 100 MPG auto?
While Europe has cars that get up to 100MPG we can’t because of some EPA rule. Yes they are slow, but on the island 55 MPH is the top speed and we have a lot of 45 MPH.
Most of our autos get 25 - 30 MPG so even a 60 MPG auto would cut fuel use by half. These are small cars by our standards but a lot of us drive 1 or 2 people per car. Any one else think these small auto would work on the island?
