You can do this in mutliple ways: 1. own a car that gets lots of MPG 2. drive less 3. drive slower 4. avoid braking

i thought fuel efficiency was best around 70-75 mph in a car...

actually it depends on rpm...higher rpm, more gas going through the energy...so its possible for 110 mph to conserve more gas then 50 mph

need I say more m8? You'll be spending more time fixing it then doing mods. Trust me Ford = teh fail!! Dallas is mustang heaven for some reason. Invest your money into something that's already fast and reliable man. Just my .02 brotha.

ic ic... either case, driving slower MIGHT not be fuel efficient i like that.

i may be wrong, but i think thats how it works...

Originally posted by EyesOfExtasy I got caught by a Nassau doing 85 in a 50. So bascially thats 31 plus miles over the limit so I got a summons. He could have spared me the greif and rounded it off to 80 so I would just get a ticket and pay it, but nooooooooo.

next time that happens ask to see the radar. You have the right to ask to see it. If he can't provide it then he has no proof thus rendering you free to go. It's only happen to me once . But I have never been pulled over again thanks to this love in my life:

not entirely true, but close... efficiency depends on a lot of factors. You can run your engine at low rpm, yet still use a lot of gas. Just drive your car at 30mph in 5th or 6th gear and you will see that you have to put down the accelerator a lot, which means that the amount of gasoline put into the engine is pretty big.

Similarly, going downhill and put the car in a low gear, which will cause high rpm, but if one does not touch the accelerator, the engine -provided that it is 'new' enough- will not use ANY gasoline. At least recent BMW engines are programmed to shut off the gasoline intake if the car's inertia is able to drive the engine.

So, in the end, it is a combination of speed, gear ratio, accelerator depression, car weight, road conditions etc.

it is his word against yours. Whom do you think the court is more likly to believe? A cop, who supposedly has no motivation to give you a speeding ticket apart from your speeding, or you, who is motivated to escape punishment?

Ps.: of course cops are motivated to give you speeding tickets. I heard that promotions are based on 'performance' which is assessed by the amount of tickets handed out...
