About 40MPG and 50MPG for the diesel.

Such a car would likely be "useful" out in the west where distances

are
measured in three or even four digits and those are MILES not klicks.


I don't think so. I'm not driving around anywhere in a car the size of
a beer can. When I hit you, or a deer, etc I want to know I'm walking

away.

Which is why I put "useful" in quotes. Their engines are not built, I'd
guess, for the speeds or distances involved out here.


You want speed? 150mph enough? 0-62 in 7.2 seconds?
