When I say ever, I mean it. What’s the worst fuel economy that can be found in any vehicle in the world, from any time period?

The worse I know of is 3 gal. per mile. I’m sure some are worse than that.
tanks/they get negative mileage/7 gallons to the mile
Transport trucks may get as little as 3 MPG under extreme conditions.
The worst ever would be 0 mpg but I don’t think theres a car anywhere that gets that little mpg lol
There was a BMW built in the 1920′s with a 14 liter V12 aircraft engine that got 0.2 mpg.
I knew a guy who once owned a 1970 Plymouth Cuda with a 426 HEMI engine. As he would pick up speed he could actually see the fuel gauge dropping. He said that beast would pass everything but a gas station. If I recall I think it only got 12 or 14 miles per gallon on the highway and even worse in the city. It was a pig on gas.
