I'd love to hear more about the elec. Car with pics in it's own thread!!! I think we all would when you have time.
I'd drive one of those for sure. Super rare and cool and my commute is only 7mi each way

I used to keep track of some of the cars' mileage when I'd do oil changes. The best I saw was a 17' cvt that kept getting a consistent 5.1l/100kms/46mpg according to the trip B. It seems pretty good for a company owned delivery car.
Pretty good, especially if that's 4 seasons.
There's three I know of.
Mitsubish MZ314528 (sorry, I don't have a link...)
ZeroStart 3100111 - it's what I'm using.
Kats 11812
Edit:
1. I plug mine in roughly 90 minutes before I leave for work. Any more is a waste of electricity as the motor won't get much hotter.
2. I use mine year-round.
3. I would also consider/recommend an oil pan heater pad.
I was sooo close when I had my loaned Mirage from Mitsu... Sadly, just not quite there. 49.0 mpg.
49 rounds to 50, doesn't it?
:D
I've gotten over 50 on a tank many times, but my lifetime average so far is 48.1 according to fuelly. My best tank was 55.4mpg, which I achieved when taking the scenic route home from Missouri. I usually try to drive 55mph unless I'm on a long trip, then I'll go 70, but I had time and purposely tried for that one! :) My Mirage is too precious to drive in winter yet so I don't have that working against my average.
Hello spork. Long time no see.
What do you use for winter - a Metro?
