    Yet one more list of fuel efficient cars that totally ignores the fact that there are diesel powered cars out there that get almost twice the mileage of some of the cars on their list....

    My car could have made that list 25 city/ 33-34 highway, and they forgot the Insight. Last I checked, it got 60+ city/ 70+ highway.

    Ironically, none of those cars would even crack the top ten in Europe.

    Mine gets 29 mpg avg. Best I got was 32 highway at 65 w/ cruise on.
    Worst I got was 14.5 mpg at the track.

    Dunno where they get the 22/27 numbers.
