Default Why was this MPG thread closed?

It's an old thread, but Ryan posted on it, there wasn't any drama that I see, and it was closed without a mention of why.

http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/s...8580&showall=1

In general, is MPG frowned upon? Is it the amount of import engines that are mentioned? 3-wheelers?

Thanks,
Kurt

A '07 Thread that was closed in '08...

Yeah, I remember it like it was yesterday.



Maybe it got too far Off Topic after it got brought back to the top.

My guess is that it was around one of the times gas spiked and there were probably 4 or mo similar posts. I've seen that happen and some of the posts get closed, some left open.

Editorially, it makes better sense to have fewer posts on the same topic.
