Classic Cars and eatin' gas

[IIbulletcatcher]

Hey there, ladies and gents. I'll keep it short. My name is Max, I'm a 22 year old Army veteran going to college in Bradenton, Fl, and I drive old cars pretty much exclusively. Fuel economy is only really important to me as an indicator of my car's health; after all, when your mpg are sub 15 you might as well stop worrying about saving money.

As evidence to support that statement, the list of cars I have owned is as follows, in order.

1963 Chevy Impala (283 ci)
1996 Mercury Grand Marquis (4.6 Ford Modular)
1986 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham D'Elegeance (307ci Oldsmobile)
1977 Mercury Cougar (351ci M)

All are big, floaty v8s (well, technically, small block v8s, but how many of you still drive a car with one?)

If you have a question about big American land yachts, I'm probably a pretty good guy to ask.
