What do you drive and how many MPG do you get?

Got rid of this almost 3 years ago and haven't had anything since that fits in your price criteria:
1990 Saab 900 hatchback non-turbo 5 speed manual.

Paid $5500 in mid-1998 with 65k miles.

Got avg 21 city / 27 hwy.

Liked: Very comfortable ride with very good handling and road feel. Heated seats were nice. "Love it or hate it" styling (obviously, I loved it). Phenomenal winter handling.

Disliked: Speakers are 4" dash and 4x10 rear. Luckily, I was able to mount a pair of 6x9's on the rear cargo cover which made one hell of a difference.
holy ****! lol ...we bought the same car for $200 with a european engine though. Was in the family of the people who own coca cola and they had it shipped from germany. Has all the maitenence logs from germany. Only thing wrong with it is a couple broke hoses. Had 200,000 miles on the body and a new engine put in it. AND GOT 25 MILES/GALLON

 
Nothing will ever beat the value of a cheap motorcycle for gas economy:

2005 Buell XB9

Paid 5k, can get older ones for alot cheaper

65mpg hwy, 50+ in town

Buy a cheap bike, keep your other ride for when you need to haul people/stuff or for shitty weather days

 
escort gt 30-35mpg, lol have fun finding one left..... i got 2..... last one i seen worth buying was about 3500....

and this mpg is with my stereo in , so its an extra few hundred lbs......

 
2001 Chevy crew cab 2500hd 4x4 MAYBE 10 at best probably 8-9

2004 Buick Rainier AWD 15 city 20 highway

1997 Acura CL right around 30 mpg

Hope to trade the Buick in for a CTS soon and get a little better mileage.
