Got rid of my gas eating V6 Ford Ranger and purchased a 2004 Suzuki Swift+ I am looking forward to seeing my gas bill at the end of the month. Its a 1.6L automatic with 87,000 km's on it.

Welcome -

I'm sure you'll like the results compared to the Ranger. But the automatics in those cars (same as Chevy Aveo / Pontiac Wave) aren't very MPG friendly compared to some other small automatic equipped cars.

You've got an '06 Civic as well?
