Well heck... if you're driving an LBC.... odds are you're getting better mileage than the 'average' vehicle on the road these days. With all the SUV's dragging down the 'average' we ARE already doing

Our 4-wheel GMC Suburban drive gets 16mpg around town. My C4 Corvette gets about 21mpg, again, as a daily driver. The Ferrari does 24+ on the road and depending upon my degree of misbehavior, about 1
