you don't really say **how** you want to put two bikes in. Laying on top of each other, fork mounts...?

Actually, I did... See post #8 in this thread on the first page. "Indy-"great" is 35+ mpg, and "fit" is 2 bikes (front wheels off is fine) upright if possible."

Another vote for the Fit. 2 bikes, front tire off in back seat. Still have the covered trunk (no need to fold DOWN the back seats to fit 2 bikes, you fold UP the back seat keeping the trunk the way it should be - normal!) for gear and easy access.
City MPG is 30 for us here in Hawaii and that's going over a 1600' "pass" back and forth. It's not the fastest car on the block, but for the price (it's no $30,000 Mini or Prius) and dependability and cost to own, it's is perfect for us and our lifestyle.
Snow? If it snows in Hawaii, I'll let ya know.
