Fuel consumption perspective.... if you had to fuel your ride from 12 oz cans, like beer

Over at If It's Got an Engine, they wondered what the reaction would be to gas usage if we had to pour gas into our cars like beer: that is, in 12-ounce cans.
The writer, who owns a 1991 BMW 750 iL, would need two cases of beer gas to get to work and back, every single day. His beer-can-per-mile came in at 1.6 miles-per-can. Even if he took his motorcycle that achieves 48 mpg, he would still need to use 16 cans every day to do the round trip commute.

Once upon a time, you could get the 43% increased HP from a supercharger option for your Shelby 289... http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2006/11/once-you-could-get-this-supercharger.html#links for $435
Aint it cool when history repeats itself? It's a lot more expensive now though
Now, for $5,599, the ROUSHcharger increases the HP of your Mustang GT from 300 to 445. That's a 48-percent increase http://www.autoblog.com/2007/10/03/roush-adds-30-extra-hp-to-roushcharger/
