So, after reading about Baxter increasing cylinder count, I wonder what my cylinder count versus people I can transports is. For example:
2 Miatas, 8 Cylinders, 4 People, total.
1 Aspire, 4 Cylinders, 4 People.
1 Escort, 4 Cylinders, 5 People.
1 Canoe, 0 Cylinders, 3 People.
1 Sunfish, 0 Cylinders, 2 People.
1 Line Trimmer, 1 Cylinder, 0 People.
1 Lawn Mower, 1 Cylinder, 0 People.
2 Specialized Bike, 0 Cylinders, 2 People.
So, my numbers are 18: 20
Whats your number?
Joey
saab: 4 cylinders, 5 people
BMW: 4 Cylinders, 5 people
Fiat: 4 cylinders, 2 people
hmmm.. I appear to be perfectly balanced between the number of cylinders I have and the number of people that can be moved 12:12
1 Miata, 4 cylinders, 2 people. 1 Z3, 6 cylinders, 2 people. 1 Nitro Stampede, 1 cylinder, 0 people.
11 : 4
I'm a bit in the other direction.
1 Trooper, 6 cylinders 5 people.
1 Jensen Healey, 4 cylinders 2 people.
1 Spitfire 2 rotors 2 people.
12:11. Dang, I gotta get my cylinder count back up.

2 Rotors count for at least 4 cylinders, if not six!

Hmmm... are we counting radio control stuff? That skews things badly...
-Tahoe 8/5
-240SX #1 4/4
-240sx #2 4/2
-Saab 4/5
-Suzuki 4/5
That makes the vehicular count 24/21.. not too shabby, and the 2 snails in there should count for something...
Non people moving internal combustion goes up by 4 for yard equipment, 4 for ground RC, 3 fixed wing flyers, and 2 for helos
that's 37/21 :twisted:
Then add a pair of rotors not currently in a vehicle...
Edit: forgot the snow blower
New MINI 4/4
Classic Mini 4/4 (the seat is there, I just don't want to sit in it)

Mine has to be horrible, especially if you count engines that aren't installed in anything. Counting uninstalled engines, gardening supplies, RC cars, and parts cars, my cyl count has to be well over 100, and the people count is somewhere around 20.
3 bikes, 0 cylinders, 3 people. Civic, 4 cylinders, 5 people. Volvo, 4 cylinders, 5 people. GS450, 2 cylinders, 2 people.
10 cylinders, 15 people.

XC90 - 5 cylinder - 7 people
malibu-4 cylinder - 5 people
TR3 - 4 cylinders - 2 people (+2 small kids)
TR8 - 8 cylinder - 2 people
21 cylinders : 16 people (+2 small kids)
Jack
ps - I love the dicotomy of the XC90 (5:7) versus the TR8 (8:2) Lot's O'cylinders : few people = Fun!
neon 4cyl 5ppl, lumina, 6cyl, 6 ppl, charger 8cyl (have 2 engines for it) 0 people (no seats installed currently), 4 bikes 0 cyl 4 people, 2 trikes 0cyl 2 ppl, bike trailer 0 cyl 2 very little people
18cyl: 19ppl
Miata 4Cyl 2ppl, Miata 4Cyl 2ppl, Jetta 4cyl 5 ppl, VStrom 650 2cyl 2ppl, Gary Fischer 0 cyl 1 ppl, Panasonic road bike 0cyl 1 ppl, manual reel mower 0cyl 0 ppl.
14 cylinders, 13 people. Miatas swing the ratio. Miata tub doesn't change the ratio, since it is 0cyl 0ppl.

- Fiero - 6 cylinders, 2 seats

Not how many people live with you, but how many people could your vehicles potentially hold.
ie the Miata can carry 2, the Porotge5 holds 4 or 5...
Joey
so... we do we go all edmunds.com and start a people to cup holder count?
