But the Mazda 3 info caught me. How on earth were they getting such poor mpgs?? I hope its strictly from poor driving habits rather than the cars design, etc.

Thanks. I am guessing most it is poor driving habits and techique. The car owner normally sits in alot of traffic and is alway stop and go, running up to stop lights quickly and braking hard... Then of course always waiting in long drive thru lines at starbucks... Wasting money on so many levels!

It is a 2010 or 2011 4 door hatchback with the 2.5 engine mated with an automatic transmission, so that might be part of it too. Not to metion lots of mountains and higher speeds...
