I was driving last night thinking about a couple threads where people mentioned how good fuel economy was in some 80's and 90's econoboxes. I don't disagree, but as I was playing around with the instrument cluster in my Jeep, it hit me that this large SUV with a V6 that puts out 290 hp gets the same mileage as one of my first cars did - a beat up old K-car with a 2.2 that brand new put out a tire scorching 93 hp. By time I got it with a gazillion miles on it I am sure it was a lot less! Considering the weight, size and performance of this vehicle, is there ever a better time to be a car guy? This large vehicle gets 24 MPG without me even trying.
