    I think the auto makers could make a more efficient vehicle than what we have. I was talking with a friend, she has a Ford Focus(couple of years old), I asked her how was the mpg? She said it was OK, she use to have a Geo Metro and got 60 mpg.

    With all the technology that we have, I can't believe they can't come up with vehicles that can get 50 mpg.

    Just my .02. Gas just went from $3.42 to $3.70 a gallon.

    The Honda Fit is a good car with lots of room and good mileage. BUT, the same car in Japan gets ALOT better mileage. I read that Honda didn't want the Fit to get better mileage than the Civic Hybrid, which is a more expensive car.

    It really stinks. Just give us the car that's available in Japan (same for VW and their diesel hybrid Rabbit that they won't bring over here--only available in Europe).
