If you don't agree, I have a Yugo to sell you, it will take you from point A to point B without problems, just $999!  |
No thanks, I got a 2000 Saturn with 300,000 miles on it that runs like it was new with no mechanical problems that gets 30+ miles to the gallon that I paid 760 bucks for. Lol |

Hmm let's try...
So a Mile is 8 furlongs (are those that alien race we never saw in Stargate?)
A furlong is apparently 10 chains... don't know what kind of chain so I'm betting on bike chains.
A chain seems to be 22 yards, but the thing is... here in Sweden the median size of a yard is bigger than one in Belgium... but hmmm Americans like it big so let's say Sweden yards... (eventho last time I stood in one I could Swear I could throw more than 100 shoes of mine without filling it up, so next statement is rather bizar)
Now a yard is 3 feet, again thinking Americans like it big I'll take my feet which are size 46 so 3 of those that's almost a meter... but Americans don't like decimals so let's say 3 feet is a meter.
Now if I combine all that data and calculate it, his Saturn's fuel usage would be: Fuck this shit, I'd have an easier time getting my answers measuring everything with marbles!

Any car can be fun. I really believe in that. Seen plenty of race drivers saying the same thing as well. Sure the yugo will never be a great car, but you can still have fun with it. (Not just fun of it)
As for the Mondeo, it's a solid car. Starting from the 2000's Ford made most cars with good handling, and this should be one of them. There's even a 5 cylinder turbo version if I'm not mistaken. Looks boring but sure isn't when you're driving (I really like cars like that, it's fun to surprise people).
