^That.

Also, based on my Wrangler and an expected 200,000mile life, I can actually buy a brand new Prius (inclusive of fuel and insurance) with the fuel savings. My Prius is actually 'free' as compared to using my Wrangler on a regular basis. I bought a used Prius so it actually 'makes' money. In fact I could even say I bought my Fiat brand new and the used Prius and got free fuel, with the fuel money from the Wrangler.

4x4's are awfully expensive to run. US figure will be a bit more SUV friendly I suspect.
