Yes, I have also read about that in the article "Couple uses Passat TDI to set 84 mpg hypermiling record". The Taylors have set Guinness records for mileage before, including this individual record. According to Automobile magazine, they also hold the lowest fuel consumption record for a gas-powered non-hybrid car in the Lower 48, achieving 64.62 mpg in a Chevrolet Cruze Eco. They are good. I'm impressed.
