CHICAGO - Want to spend less at the pump? Lose some weight. That's the implication of a new study that says Americans are burning nearly 1 billion more gallons of gasoline each year than they did in 1960 because of their expanding waistlines. Simply put, more weight in the car means lower gas mileage.

It's about time we knew who our real enemies are...fat people and the US military-petroleum complex, with their armies of lean, battle-hardened shock troops of CIA assassins, MBAs with their gym-induced six-packs, and the shot-gun toting lard ass of a vice president.
When will we learn that it' a big fat scam... weight is the enemy, folks. Gravity sucks.

There we go....the answer was so clear all along....only let single skinny people drive.
No more need for SUV's and minivans. While were at it, don't bother to marry and have children. Even same sex marriage will be legal because as you know children will only add more weight to a vehicle and that will cost us more at the pump, too. I wonder what Ted Kennedy will do? doesn't he count as four people, weight wise?

I drive a 1.6 litre Hyundai so even though I am not an American, it must mean i am a patriot.
It also has to do with the fact that I'm tight with my cash, yet nippy in my car.
I also make the kids eat their lunch BEFORE I drive them to school so there is less weight in their bags.
Oh, nice linkbaiting headline BTW
