6.4l engines, 13 mpg. Three good reasons why one rarely sees these in my native Flanders region of Belgium:
- one-time vehicle registration tax: 11.4k€ or about 13k USD
- yearly road tax: 6.5k€ or 7.3k USD
- fuel cost: +- 52 USD/100 miles
The undersigned silly idiot drives his 15 year old station wagon as little as possible and like an old grandmother, consuming 53mpg. The goal: to avoid unncessarily sponsoring Mohammed Bin Salman, Vladimir Putin and similar nuisances, like global warming. He would prefer something resembling solidarity in his quest, by moving cars with engines like this to extreme specialty real use, musea or engine geek clubs outside the public road system.
