That’s not that bad considering how slow they usually run. Constantly idling...

Still the best MPG a hearse has ever gotten.

This one wasn’t doing any slow running or idling, we were using it in a road rally. The best tank was literally 100% highway (filled up at gas station, got straight onto onramp, cruised until the tank was empty) and was 19.4 mpg

Now I’m curious about the new hearse. It’s a 6 cylinder and I’m pretty sure it’s lighter

On the road I’m sure it could top this but I doubt you are getting very good mileage with the work a Hearse does, even with the V6.

If it was a former hearse... Did you clean out what must be around a third of the weight of the car worth of carbon from ... everywhere?
Which reminds me: Hearses should all be electric with the amount of idling and low-speed driving they do for short distances. It seems like a business that could only grow with the aging of the largest generation in history.

They do a lot more distance driving than you might imagine. We have to do semi-regular trips to Boston (200 mile round trip) to pick up/drop off a body at the state medical examiner’s office, for example. Not to mention trips to New York (300 miles)/New Jersey (400)/other places that aren’t close but aren’t far enough for a plane to make sense for people who died there but are being buried here
