Yes, gas mileage has actually gone down over the years, instead of up. It's sickening. And on this show I watched recently (Futurecar), they said that only 25% of the fuel is actually used to propell the car. 75% comes out the tailpipe. I was stunned! How extremely inefficient is that, and STUPID? Other forms of fuel don't have that inefficiency.
