Guzzling Your Gas More Efficiently

From NPR's All Things Considered today:

Here's a quiz. Which saves more gas: trading in a 16-mile-a-gallon gas guzzler for a slightly more efficient car that gets 20 mpg? Or going from a gas-sipping sedan of 34-mpg to a hybrid that gets 50 mpg?

Check out the answer HERE.

Beyond changing the way I will look at buying my next car, it raises interesting questions about the metrics used by the government and the car industry in general.

When is the last time your car actually met the miles per gallon benchmarks they sell you on?

I know mine never have.
