Comment rpm (Score 1) 719
For a while I've been wondering about fuel economy & rpm's.
Particularly, the increase of fuel usage with more rpm's.
Obviously the higher the rpm the more fuel is being used.
What I'm curious about is the point at which the fuel usage (at a higher rpm) would be equal to driving at a lesser rpm simply because you reach your destination sooner (and therefore are burning fuel for a shorter amount of time).
Just something I've been wondering.
