>>14335777
You going by the computer readout or you filled your car before and after a 35mile trip?
>>
>>14335777
It's no surprise you got 55mpg. You're riding on 5in wide hockey pucks
>>
>>14335982

English please. You need to go back to school and take some grammar classes. Your sentences lacks form and is hard to understand.

>>14336125
Can't blame him really.

Your brain would turn off if you have to drive a prius daily too.
>>
>>14336125

glad it took you nearly 20 minutes to retort cause you realized i blew your gook bike bullshit out

have fun constantly afraid for your life then editing only the parts where you seem like a badass to your youtube channel flipping people off

ill be in my climate controlled car getting the same MPG barely touching the wheel and not being pulled over by cops because both hands arent on the wheel or wearing something impractical in case i fall off

This is a trip on one tank of gas. Fuel tank is 1.4 gallons so you do the math.

This isn't even my best. This one had lots of stop & go traffic. If it's a straight shot I can easily get over 160 miles out of a single tank.
>>
>>14336508

whats your mpg to practical clothing and all weather climate ratio
>>
>>14336470
Idk, but I can watch the gas Guage actually fucking move. Fucking Dodge puts a 12 gallon tank in a truck that is capable of 2 mpg or less.
>>
>>14336555
100-120 mpg : Xelement armored hoodie, scorpion EXO pants, Olympia 340 kevlar gloves, motophoria motorcycle boots

>>14336602

Thinking of getting a Prius c. I want a newer car

Uhh you should actually calculate it dude. My car doesn't move the gauge at all for the first ~100 km (62 miles).

I can get 45mpgs faggot. And I don't have to wait through 3 light cycles in heavy traffic at a red light.

I average like 28mpg though because muh brap
>>
I can do 45 mpg in my piece of shit 99 Camry. Id rather have a slightly lower mpg in order to look like slightly less of a fag.

>>14338363
Shit, gow do you manage that? I struggle getting 30 in mixed driving (99 autotragic) .

european gallons are different from murican gallons

1US gallon is 0.66 euro gallons...

>>14335777
Hello my friend. Have you seen people's real-world mpg numbers in the Gen 4? Have seen 70 mpg. Lots of mid 60s.
>>
>>14339771
Just standardise that shit, you muricans.

Anyway, it supposedly does 3,5l/100 combined, 4,4l/100 city and 2,9l/100 highway.
Suffice to say I myself can't do that. I'm always on the 6,5l/100 mark only doing city.
But I do know people who can get 3,3l/100 combined.
>>
>>14339787
There's more vehicles in the US then your shitty country, so why don't you standardize instead.
>>
>>14340365
>more vehicles in the US than in the rest of the world
Also, I don't live in the UK and afaik the UK uses metric as an official standard.

>>14339787
Is your period key broke?

>>14335777
My 12 year old Renault Twingo usually gets about 47 mpg when I'm driving normally and my record was 58.8 mpg. And that's US gallons. Enjoy your fuel saving hybrid technology nigga.
>>
>>14340625
Well shit, I messed up the calculation by using some fucked up website. Here are the correct numbers: 42.8 normally, 54.7 on an economy run. Still impressive for a 12 year old car that I'm barely taking care of

>he's so weak, he can't even drive his car after work

No idea. I did the math myself and it checks out. I drive like a grandma though cause I'm terrified of this thing falling apart, that may be part of it.

Maybe downhill.

I doubt old vespas are that economical.

Enjoy your "fix" sometime this year.

>>14341463
I laugh as i go anywhere from 31-165 mph and you scoot along struggling to maintain 30
>>
>>14341511
I don't think thats old.
>>
>>14341511
they were designed to be economical, if you start messing around with sports exhausts,cylinder kits and carbs you might get 70mph but you'll drop to around 50mpg.

this one is restored to factory standard and will regularly get me 105mpg, it struggles to do more than 45mph.

>>14341539
so you can arrive quickly whilst i arrive in style

The best I've done in my e36 318 was 29mpg, and that's only because it was a 90 mile trip on the highway. Otherwise I'm in the suburbs and average 23 combined.
