Too bad they don’t make 1600 pound ecobox cars any more. Figure at least 800 pounds of safety nazi-mandated BS to weigh a car down. Imagine a 72 Honda Civic with today’s engine technology. Can you say 60 mpg?

t means gas is still being used in casual, non-essential ways,

What else are they supposed to use oil/gas mix with (meaning I bet a lot of people have AT LEAST a couple gallons of mix already made or left over from last year)? It would be a pretty smoky drive if they were to dump that in their gas tanks!

Four gallons of oil/gas mix for me would last almost the year; I have two acres of land. Those blowers and weed whackers don't hold much mix.
