optimum speed for fuel consumption
« on: November 03, 2018, 03:25:27 pm »
Are there any eco taxis in Ireland keeping to the optimum speed of 80km/hr for fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions reduction? I heard lately of some taxis doing it on the continent.

Most are sitting idly on ranks, doing their bit for the planet.

Haven't a fucking clue,
I just run the bollocks out of me heap when it's bizy,
 A jumbo jet uses 1 gallon of fuel a minute, And there's a million of them in the sky at any time,
 The Passengers sitting in them don't give a fuck ,
So why should I in me little 2.1 L engine.

I take that as a no so.I wonder if you kept to 80km/hr as a maximum, promoting it as a green option, could you make more money? 1. you would save on fuel. 2. you would save on wear n tear on all parts of the car. 3. Sure don't you get paid for your time so would you lose much? lIs it worth trying as an experiment? Just thought. Don't be giving mean replies, I'm a sensitive soul.

Poor Jane.

You are about to be treated to the pointless meanderings that goes with owning a crashed/repairable, imported MERC.

Albeit an E class.
