Do you have a specific MPG goal or just trying to save money? My neon is rated at 30mpg highway and you can see below that I smoke that just with tire pressure and techniques. Unless you drive alot you probably won't be saving money after buying something else. Especially if you can get 35mpg out of your car.

The Eagle has a great cd from factory at .31. That combined with its weight gives it an extremely long coasting distance. I would like to get at least 30 mpg out of it. I don't know if that is too optimistic or not considering it is an auto.
