Hmm good point, but if he bought a vehicle that gets almost 100 mpg in the first place... see what I mean? Hell, I don't know why people like this don't just take public transportation/ride a bike.

That's as logical as buying a brand new motorcycle to commute on to save money on gas. It is going to take a long ass time for the money you spent on the bike to be compensated for on saved gas $$. |

Wouldn't taller tires mean he is actually getting BETTER mileage than he is calculating?

I'm guessing EOC is "Engine Off Coasting"

You fail to mention that your scooter, at WFO, is only doing 18mph.
