For my daily driver, I went from a 2008 AWD Honda CR-V to a 2012 Subaru Impreza Sport Premium.

Lots smaller, with a Constantly Variable Transmission, AWD and 36 miles highway.

Honda got less than 20MPG. Other cars are Scions (2006-1500 cc's-the Don Mason car, and a 2008 2400 cc version), 2007 Toyota Tacoma, a Chrysler 300 with HEMI....(bad, BAD mileage) and several others...older...lots of HP...restored show cars.

Wierd to drive a car with no gears shifting. Kind of like a motor scooter.

Quirky little car totally redesigned for this year. I think we'll all be driving smaller more efficient vehicles very soon.

With the price of gasoline expected to rise AGAIN, that's a good move Russ. My 2004 Toyota Camry (4 cyl) seems to be using more fuel lately, and I may need to update to a more efficient vehicle.

So far, after 4,000 miles, mileage has been a pathetic 21 MPG. Supposed to be 27 city-36 highway.

My Tacoma gets about 27MPG in the city. The oldest Scion gets 30 MPG.

Be careful of the claims of superior mileage from Subaru.

Fast forward from this, your February post, the price of a barrel of oil is now dropping like a stone. Hopefuly that'll show up at the pumps before long. Oh, don't hold your breath.;-)
