I've been involved in several discussions here about trucks and fuel prices. Last week I painfully traded my 2003 GMC pickup for a new Honda Accord. I drove the civic which is rated 30/40 but it was too small and too rough, so I chose the value pack accord for even less money than the civic. I commute 120 miles a day, and the gas was killing me and I figured it would go higher given all the stuff going on you know where.
First tank I got 34 mpg, but 2nd tank only 31. Compared to my truck the seat is hard, foot position is terrible and I feel like a puss. But it does have the airbags all the way around and has a decent ride.
Maybe I'll get used to it.
Fortunately I have my '94 F250 deisel 4 x 4 when I need a truck fix.
