Eventually he was "getting" close to a hundred miles to the gallon. His bragging stopped as abruptly as when they quit adding gas to his car.

With the price of fuel these days I'd modify the joke to taking a litttle bit out every day. Instead of a smile for the stellar mileage he'd be pulling his hair out looking for the cause of the poor mileage or leak.
