Background
I am a conservationist. I follow Ben Franklin’s advice: “Waste not, want not.”
When I was growing up my family spent our summer vacations camping; first in tent then in pop-up camper. Our policy was to “Leave the camp site as good or better than you found it.” We enjoyed God’s creation, but we did not worship it.
Some of my cars have been:
1980 Honda Civic CVCC - 35 MPG
1986 Ford Escort Diesel - 44 MPG
1989 Ford Festiva - 42 MPG
1992 Honda Civic VX - 44 MPG
