Interesting... impressive numbers, but I'd hate to see what happens if it were get hit by another vehicle.

Did you see where that couple drove a 2009 Jetta TDI over all contiguous 48 US states, something around 9,000 miles, and averaged 69mpg! Amazing! I don't see why they don't build hybrid diesels... I'd assume 100mpg could be possible, in a real car...

Nope, didn't hear 'bout that one. But you're right... in theory, the automobile manufacturers could easily build something like that.

Have you ever thought about what would happen if we were to be hit by another vehicle in our bugs?

Nope... never. Why do you think that my other two cars are built like military tanks?

After I walked away from being car #3 in a five-car collision, I think about things like that whenever I'm in any car.
