Saw this on Facebook and the comments were teaming with boomers and morons insisting it was because cars are now more aerodynamic.

That will have a non-zero effect, but it's far from the whole story.

Because cars in the 90's weren't aerodynamic? There's been improvements, sure, but most cars then still had pretty good coefficients of drag.

But sure, blame anything except climate change.
