As most of you know I drive a Ford Superduty named Rutger.
Rutger is flex fuel truck, E85 no sweat baby, rock n roll.
He is bone stock with all the EPA stuffs just a few bells n whistles (bumpers n tires)
Well we have parking that is for fuel-efficient vehicles so I begged the question what classifies as a fuel efficient vehicle? In its class it does very well everybody is so focused on diesel trucks if you people really pay attention to this before it had some really good gasoline three-quarter ton truck standards.
Anyways being a flex fuel vehicle and considered fuel efficient for its class I decided to risk it and parked there today I was met with no question then again this is Texas they probably just figured I would run them over I don't normally work at this building normally I am out in the refinery but I had to go downtown for a big training today and just had to test the waters I have yet to find any supporting documentation that this is an enforceable law or that if it were an enforceable all I am breaking it because I would consider a vehicle's fuel efficiency ratings to be measurable only within its class you can't compare an F250 to a Yaris get real.
I don't get it twisted chance I'm not anti environment I have solutely love the environment I enjoy it every chance I get and clean up the mess is Left Behind others whenever I can. It's not like I'm going to feel the sign off of the pole with my foot long Bowie knife and make a skid plate out of it or something LOL. I have chosen not to modify this vehicle for that reason, and I've chosen to replace the Bronco primarily for this reason it has its place as a recreational vehicle but it just doesn't make sense to me to take all of my long trips doing the damage of 6 miles per gallon with no emissions controls whatsoever. I do look forward to owning a smaller 4 by 4 Toyota 4Runner to drive but I don't need my truck and I can't wait to share those experiences with you as well and on that subject the 4Runner not be considered a fuel-efficient vehicle for its class? Body-on-frame SUV 4 wheel drive not like you can compare it to a cross over!
This is General discussion so let the opinions fly you won't hurt my feelings even if you try.

Mind you the spots do not say hybrid vehicle thought I should point that out.... if that were the case then this discussion would be completely invalid
