RedhillPhil,

We have several anecdotal stories that absolutely contradict the "colder is better" story.

Cough described a 17% loss of fuel economy in winter. My gasoline vehicle gets 60 mpg in summer and 50 mpg in winter (that's miles and gallons, gentlemen) which is also 17%.

Is there some way to resolve these contradictions?
