Ok you win Tom. Thank you for the explanation rather than the random attacks of Reddit like commenters that I received. If anything their 45 highway and 55 city needs to be looked at. Don't know many of many drivers that drive more miles in the city and not on the highway.
Uh no. Let's do a simple math. Consider a car that gets 10 mpg city 20 mpg hwy. let it drive 100 miles using 55/45 city/highway ratio. Calculate the total fuel use. Compare that to the method you proposed.
Ladies and gentlemen, the day has come: it's time for a new list of unreliable CarMax cars. You know what this…

That was back during the Labor Reformation. The things you're talking about were problems nearly 100 years ago, and in case you haven't noticed, they're not fighting for those things today.

It's tough work at times. But so are a great many thing which don't strong-arm people into paying executive salary sums for manual labor…
Stupid unions.
Maybe it would be good to take this moment to ponder America's sagging infrastructure.
Last gasp of a dying breed. The canal is getting widened and the rest of the world is automating these jobs. They're trying to get as much as they can while they've still some leverage and everyone is paying for it.
Failing to invest in trains in this country was one of the really poor choices of the twentieth century.
You've probably read about it, even if it didn't really register. Something about a backlog. Something about unions.…
I'll tell you a story. I'm an advanced care paramedic. The call was for a 2-car MVA on a rural road.
Glacial profiling.
I missed that but if the hose is touching your car then you're doing it wrong. Pull up further and use your spare arm (assuming you still have 2) to keep the hose away from the paint while you pump.
