The best MPG yet!!
A recent study conducted by Glasgow University found that the average Scotsman walks about 900 miles a year. Another study by the Scottish Medical Association found that Scotsmen drink, on average, 22 gallons of alcohol a year.This means, on average, Scotsmen get about 41 miles to the gallon. Kind of makes you proud to be Scottish!

Not to rain on the parade, but... That's based on just a single scotsman... If you need 4 of them to travel together, based on the information provided, then it would 88 gallons per 900 miles... Or 10.2mpg... But in truth if 4 scotsmen are travelling together i suspect the alcohol usage will go up exponentialy causing a similar drop in miles travelled... Maybe we need some empirical data on this... Im sure there must be a grant available from someone...

Not to mention the destination would be too variable at this point. If your intent was to go to the store, and you ended up at a chip shack, where is the value?
Have fun and throw far. In that order, too. - o1d_dude
