Well, when you add speed you usually loose mpg.  Also,  even most of our
smaller cars weigh more then  twice the weight of the model t.  We've got a
lot more safety features then back then, a lot more comfort features, those
all add up as weight and less efficiencies.  I'm sure the motors have the
technology to have higher mpg then the model t if they were pushing cars
that only weight 1200 lbs and only drove at 45 mph.  I mean, I understand
your point, but it is kind of like comparing apples and oranges.
