let's do some math (generalizations taken for the type of corn, rows of kernels, water content, type of corn, ears/stalk, yield & other factors)

1 bushel = 2.7 gallons of ethanol
7280 kernels/bushel
700 kernels/ear of corn
1 ear of corn per stalk
128 ounces/gallon

so 1 stalk = 1 ear = 700 kernels = 1/10th a bushel = 35 ounces of ethanol

Now to figure out MPG, we need to now how big a zillion is. Wikipedia says it's imaginary, so I'll assume Eric, being of sound moral stature, used a zillion to be larger than a googolplex which is 10^10^100 so let's stay concervative and use a googolplex.
so a googolplex * 3.7 is the miles/gal. figure.

So if your into Hitchhiking around the galaxy a few times, this is the car for you as it's most efficient.

You shld see the kinda mileage I get from a can of beans!
