SteveB_TX Report post Posted March 11, 2015 Yep. Or two plus a fur ball. :) Though I know for sure the fur ball prefers the Z! LOL 1 hybridbear reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
md13ffhguy Report post Posted March 12, 2015 Agreed, or five! EPA MPG numbers on the sticker should be based on full occupancy... Bet that would be interesting!

Hybrider Report post Posted March 12, 2015 As I've mentioned before, I've seen my FE drop by at least 2-3 MPG when carrying 4 adults total, which added an additional 450 lbs on top of my own weight. But I'm pretty sure distributing the weight differently would not make much difference. ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
