Yes. When my 40 mpg civic (at 70 mph) is passed on the highway by someone in a full size pickup or suv going 10mph over the speed limit, they have no right to complain about gas prices. BTW, I have tried explaining that drag increase is related to square of speed - lost cause...

We had a rabbit diesel in the Carter administration. We got 42 mpg. The exhaust had a bracket that kept breaking.
Now we have two Honda Fits. Mine has 220K miles. Alas they aren't' selling them here any more.
MAGA will send pickups with gun toting militias to kill me (they will anyway after the next election) but what the world needs is $10/gal gas. If we can sustain industrial civilization at those prices the hydrocarbon mafia states would be in a bind.

My DD (Daily Driver) is a 2001 VW diesel, about 40-50 mpg.
