I live in Boulder Colorado. I've never owned a car, but sometimes I drive my girlfriend's car.

It gets about 35 mpg, and it's a hatchback with a v6 overhead cam.

Don't you Americans have bigger sized gallons anyway?

I thought it was you guys who had the larger gallon, the "Imperial" IIRC.

bloody hell, it is true, American cars do gussell down the gas.

I was watching a program about when all the arab nations decided to put a fuel embargo on america and within a super short length of time all the pumps ran dry.

12-16mpg?! That is a staggeringly inefficient vehicle! I mean, my car isn't small, will cruise comfortably at a high speed, yet it will do over 40mpg on a long run...you Americans need to take a leaf out of the book of your European counterparts, although saying that, some of you with the Japanese cars (Lincoln for example) seem to have pretty efficient cars, although it is hard to judge with the difference in size between the gallons. What annoys me is that our fuel economy rating in the UK is still in mpg yet we buy fuel in litres...

well that's what it was rated at the dealership. I actually get 14 and 18.5.

And why do you have a big pickup truck? I mean, surely a car like DuncanK (2nd post) would be better? I mean, that looks a damn efficient car even by European standards...
