Default Gas mileage

A 2006 study by Texas A & M University found that the average American
walks about 900 miles per year.

Another study by the University Of Texas found that Americans drink an
average of 22 gallons of beer a year.

Thus, on average, Americans get approximately 41 miles per gallon -
not bad!
