The 2.2/2.5 family of vehicles bolded out above wotn get you anywhere near 40mpg..
About the only one that gets you close to 40mpg was a 1982-1984 Dodge Rampage or Plymouth Scamp pickup 1983 only (Based on the Omni/Charger platform)
The lightest front wheel drive Chrysler vehicle ever made..
I saw 36mpg max out of it and drove it very light to the peddle..
As Chrysler loving as I am, they are not very reliable..
Get the newest Geo Metro you can and you'll be set
