According to the government...

They recalculated the gas mileage for cars back to 1985 based on higher speeds, faster acceleration, cold weather, and a/c usage.

Here are some examples.

1989 Geo Spectrum - This one dropped like crazy. (I routinely got over 40 mpg city when driving this car and 45+ on the highway)

1992 Buick Roadmaster (I get 18-19 city and 25-27 highway)

Whats up with that. Are they trying to get us to feel bad about driving the cars we have now cuz I sure as hell dont. :stirpot:

Mine should only drop about 1 mpg, since it's nothing stellar anyway :D
