Default OT..... Fuel Efficient Vehicle Recommendations

komobu wrote:
Hi;

I have an 2006 vehicle with a V-6 in it that only gets about 18 MPG in
the city. I
don't do a whole lot of highway driving and have put 16,000 miles on
it over the last year. I am thinking about trading it for something
more practical. I am looking for something less than $20k with an
automatic trans that gets 30+ mpg.

Any recommendations as to what I should check?


"In Berkeley, the price of gas nudges four dollars a gallon, and the
citizenry rush out en masse to buy Priuses. But in the desert state of
Rajasthan [India], it's camels that are flying off the lot.

"So says the Financial Times, in an amusing, albeit
disturbing-if-you-think-too-much-about-it, story by Jo Johnson, "Camel
demand up as oil price soars."
