Not true, old cars can be pretty efficient, you just gotta find one that still has a straight-six. Every car made in America in the fifties and sixties came with three engines, a V8, a really big and expensive V8, and an economical straight-six. My '60 Chevy had a straight-six, got 25 miles per gallon. Unfortunately it sputtered out an anemic 150 horsepower, but it was still pretty quick.

I once saw a living statue that was very interesting, because he was missing an arm. I mean he had dressed up as a statue that had had its right arm cut off by vandals. I suppose he didn't have a right arm in the first place, but he'd fashioned a bronzed half-arm to wear that looked very much like a statue's arm hacksawed through just above the elbow.
