Advice? So says the guy driving a 15 year old Boxster. LOL.

Sayings you say? There are many-many reason people like to get & see good gas mileage. I would expect Warren Buffet to be considerate of MPGs.

Considering Warren Buffett drives Cadillacs, I'm not sure MPG's are a big concern. Yes, it's kind of a fun game to play the fuel economy game....but frankly, if your mpg's are getting high, it means you aren't really driving the car. These cars are meant to be driven, fuel economy be damned!

Frankly, saving 3 or 4 MPG's is only going to save you around $100/year in fuel costs based on 10K of driving. I'd rather put my foot down a bit more for that paltry amount.
