Cruiser: New Best Tank!

[Neen]

There is a lot of hate on the PT Cruiser from those unfortunate souls that have rented an automatic equipped PT. Believe me I feel your pain. But not all is bad with the PT...in fact if you opted to get the manual transmission car, you would find out that it is actually a fun and extremely versatile vehicle.

EPA ratings on the maunal transaxle PT are 19/26 and 22 combined. After a trip into the mountains, I recorded my best mileage yet. 33.4 mpg over a full tank! My Ultraguage has my life cumulative at 31 mpg overall now. That is 150% of the EPA combined...not too shabby.

That is a respectable number, it has always killed me that those cars were reported to have such terrible gas mileage. They have a 4 cylinder are low sleek ,appear rounded and aerodynamically sound, as opposed to say the jeep Cherokee which earns its nickname the brick. Good numbers you logged.
