It's how you drive it.
When you press the gas you spend gas for speed and you want as much distance for what you spent. A 6 Cylinder can get to 70mph without spending as much as a 4 Cylinder needs to get there. At 40mph the 6 Cylinder is not needed at all. However if it's stop and go with lights the 6 cyclinder can accelerate quickly to 40mph and glide to the next light burning less fuel than a 4 cyclinder in this scenario, where a 4 Cyclinder can steadily accelerate to 40mph and glide to the light more efficiently than the 6.
It's driving style. How you drive.
I would rather be the 6 Cylinder guy. Going at the same speed limit, the fact that I accelerated to get there faster can make the difference of being caught at a red light which forces you to stop wasting the speed you already spent gas for. Also when jumping on the highway I can get up to speed without having to make the guy behind me even have to tap their brakes saving everybody mileage, with a 4 Cylinder I would be pedal to the medal and having people slam their brakes behind me.E-stat crew

lol @ speeders giving OP a hard time on the basis of fuel economy.
You know what else saves fuel? Driving slower - particularly up hills.
Coasting to lights, timing them and potentially retaining some of your momentum work as well. Roundabouts are much more fuel-efficient than stop signs or lights as a result of this.
You know what phucks up fuel economy? Moron aggressive speeders who will accelerate past a car in the slow lane, only to beat them to the stop light. All that extra fuel used to accelerate just gets turned into waste heat and brake dust.

I don't come to your job and knock the mop out of your hand.
Since you obviously have trouble with reading comprehension, you should go back and re-read what I posted. Where did I say 4cyl > 8cyl?
Next time try coming up with an intelligent response before posting.
Wow I didn't know Belgium even had paved roads.
I'm glad your company promotes unsafe driving, that's smart.
I think I have good ideas, so I stand by them.KEEP REP TRADING COMMENTS OUT OF YOUR SIG

Hey OP, I'm a slow driver too. I don't feel the need to speed, naturally I just drive slow. I'm very punctual and organized as well. (srs)
But I drive in the right lanes *******, you're a cheeky kunt and I hope while you're looking in your rearview mirror to try and cockblock the driver behind you, you drive your car into a concrete barrier and flip over into oncoming traffic.
Aint even mad

Only read op.
Response:
- speeding is more of a pleasure than an "unorganized" trait
- you're an idiot if you break when someone's up your ass in a left lane (right lane in AUS)... it's the fast lane, you are not the law enforcer, move out of the phucking way you ignorant kunt, then once the speeding driver is passed you can merge back into the lane
- "wreck" someone's car, yea, go for it, try prove that the person is speeding, while they'll easily prove you rammed them (road rage *******)
- you're a bitch driver
Conclusion:
- op is a *******

Obviously you are punctual and organized if you don't regularly speed. Speeding is because people can't plan correctly and they are late to everything. If I were ever a hiring manager, I'd ask if they ever speed. If the answer yes, then I wouldnt hire them. They will cause nothing but problems in the office.
