Tin Foil Hats for Toyota Owners?

[buckeye]

The 1960 Ford Falcon with the 144 cubic inch six was rated at 30 MPG on the highway.  It would be easy today to build a simple, carbureted car with a 4 cylinder engine that would get 35-40 MPG.

Even better to build a small car that meets modern safety standards, but it'd have a  fuel injected engine roughly 2/3 the size that makes about 1/3 more horsepower with -far- cleaner emissions.

Don't get me wrong, there's no doubt the old Falcon did a fine job but there's no reason to regress back to it.
