I told my old lady the same thing this weekend, Im looking forward to my next "beater" in five years or so. a nice focus or equivalent rated at 40mpg's would likely yield 50mpg's with good driving techniques.

Ive been doing pretty good with my 05 focus at 40mpg's average with a grill block and light hypermiling.
