    I personally recommend this tool. I've owned both versions (I and II) and can't say enough good things about it. If you're serious about saving fuel, get one.

    Mark's Metro

    Mark's Metro

    What is it with the Internet, Canadians, and their Suzukiclones? Automotive exhibitionists, eh?

    Check out Mark's Metro to follow his ongoing adventures. He covers it all: from rationale for wanting one, to search, to purchase, to hurculean repair efforts, to MPG.

    Ever searching for better mileage, he experimented with acetone for a few tanks and recorded the results.

    Unfortunately, mother nature has a way of foiling the best laid plans. With the mercury plummeting, cold weather probably interfered, and Mark basically had to declare a mis-trial.

    It's great to see the enthusiasm these little cars can generate in their owners. At Mark's Metro, the simple pleasure of owning and driving an efficient, no-nonsense car comes across loud and clear.
