Miles per fill-up

One of the selling points I've been hearing more and more in car commercials is the idea of miles between fill-ups, which is a misleading way to sell a car. Miles per gallon is at least a measure of engine efficiency. Miles per fill-up is simply a measure of gas tank volume. My car happens to have an 18-gallon tank, so I could potentially go about 500 miles between fill-ups. But it doesn't mean it's more efficient or less gas-guzzling than a compact or a hybrid. I guess it's all about the laziness factor. #business
