That was a great video. I'm old enough to remember when in the 70's several car companies came out with big cars with small engines to save gas. Well guess what happened. The cars burned twice as much fuel as a properly powered car because you had to be so far into the throttle just to do the speed limit, thus wasting a lot more fuel! I drive a Jaguar XJR, which is a supercharged V-8. Sure it uses some fuel (and premium, too), but I wouldn't trade it for one of those moon-mobiles, ever!
