Missing the most important thing of all. Reliability! All the fuel economy or handling is nothing if it breaks down and requires frequent repairs. I am driving a 18 year old Lincoln Town Car. With a 302 V8 engine, I get 26.4 MPG highway. 21.4 overall. Which is better than sneering neighbors get with their compacts. Wish I could say it was mechanically perfect. But the stereo is out and the rear door windows fail to operate.
