40mpg? Wow
It never ceases to amaze me how Mercedes was able to extract 40mpg out of the 123 body cars, simply amazing.

They measured it over a short stretch of a steep downhill run from the top to the bottom of Pikes peak....

You've got to wonder how many of those people run out of fuel, especially if they go by miles....."I just put in 18 gallons, thats enough for over 700 miles!"
....500ish miles later at the side of the road......
