Consumer Reports is the only magazine I've ever heard of who can take an EPA-rated 16/22 minivan and try and say they acheived an average of 11 city, 29 highway in the damned thing, and THEN suggest they averaged 35 city 50 (FIFTY) highway in a Prius.
Of course, I think I recall them having admitted to going by the mileage meter in cars, which is a retarded thing to do, considering how largely inaccurate those can be.
Also, they love to remind you how they have the largest sample base of any study around... and then fail to mention that probably at least half of their 1.3 million subscribers are biased jackasses who subscribe to that pile of crap magazine SOLELY to vote "OMG I NEED MY TOYOTA/HONDA."
