  1. You really don't know much do you?

    A car with 10K on it will almost always be less fuel efficient than one
    with 50K or more...

    <sigh>

    spot data is not average data. spot data is used to compile average data.

    eh? you don't seem to have a very good grasp of math principles. but
    the education system today is not very effective so it's probably not
    your fault.

    the "difference" is that you don't know what you're talking about.

    yes i do - at 10k, the motor is still tight and thus wastes more energy
    on friction.

    You should use data of the same kind when compiling average.
    If you mix city mileage and highway mileage you will not get
    either calculation improved by using average. You will get pretty
    useless mixture/average of mileage changing in time with
    no chanse of spoting the cause for increase/decrease.
    Are you trying to compensate some of your own education problems
    with childish coments like this one?

    Really? So the best days for a car start when the warranty ends :))
    Show me the source of your information about 50k, Master!

    Only if you drive a yugo. Most cars come a warranty that is a bit
    longer than 10K miles.

    that's spot data!!! it's spot data that comprises an average. [and
    there's two t's in "spotting", two c's in "chance".]

    spot data is is essential to acquire, but seems you don't understand the
    concept of interpretation.

    education problems? [two m's in "comments", and your computer has a
    spell checker.] no, i don't think i have education problems. i have a
    problem with idiots that can't do math [or spell] though.

    You expect somebody who was incapable of operating a web browser and visiting
    google in the first place to be able to use it now?
    You need to give him a search string. Obviously, he can't do it by himself.

    Pez: try "engine break-in fuel economy"

    way after he's put the noose around his own idiot neck.
