This is a question Stuff I've found

Freddy Woo writes, "My non-prostitute-killing, lorry driving uncle once came home with a wedding cake. Found it in a layby, scoffed the lot over several weeks."

What's the best thing you've found?

64mpg is pretty much as good as you'll get here too
you must be laughing as you drive circles (slowly) round your compatriots

They were laughing at me
when diesel fuel was so expensive, until I calculated the cost per mile of driving my car vs. theirs. A gasoline engine car typically gets about 30-35 mpg at best over here, where I get 53 mpg with the Weedeater. It works out that it costs me about 70% as much as it costs them to drive the same distance.

I think that when I can afford to do so, I'll replace the Weedeater with another diesel car. For one thing, one of the guys I work with brews his own biodiesel out of used cooking oil- if I can copy his setup, it will only cost me about a buck a gallon, instead of about three bucks. He uses his to heat his house and run his tractor.
