It works for most of my needs in town, and on the highway. Drove 600 miles @ 70 - 80 mph with no problem, except wished it had cruise.<br>it doesn't get astronomical mileage, but in truth, very few cars available now do. I think it is the highest mpg non-hybrid in the USA.<br>Looking forward to the other upcoming small cars like Toyota iQ, VW up!   Etc. <br>Finally some cool, interesting small cars! Not just econoboxes.<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[DP]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 2nd 2008 7:04PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
