[QUOTE="Frank Pope, post: 4215242, member: 44975"] When I was a kid, a neighbor bought a Renault Dauphine which was the lastest thing circa 1959. He was always bragging about what great car it was and what good mileage it got (around 39 mpg combined). After listening to this for a few weeks, my dad and another neighbor started sneaking into his driveway at night and adding gas to the tank. Soon, the neighbor was crowing that he got 42, 48, 54 mpg. Then when he topped out @ 62 mpg, dad and the other neighbor started siphoning gas out of his tank. Mileage sank until it was 6 mpg. The owner was @ the dealer going crazy and of course, they could never find anything wrong. I don't think dad ever confessed, but at least he didn't have to hear any more raving about Renaults. He never owned a foreign car and liked it that way. [/QUOTE]
