If Only The BMV Allowed The Use Of Exclamation Points

Do you think the owner of the nice red VW Jetta TDI (turbo direct injection aka diesel) is bragging here? The license place was "52 MPG."

I get mid-20s in gas mileage. That is with a 11 year old 98 horsepower engine and it just cost me almost $35 to fill it up. If this city had any viable public transportation system I would be using it now.
