My wife and I are 'Mericans, which means we could stand to miss a meal or two. The wife is complaining that our trusty Fiat 500 simply does not fit. I was wondering what new car we should look at if comfort and low operating costs for 150k miles were our top priorities. The VW Passat seemed pretty good with a lot of room and good gas mileage, but VW reliabilty has a poor track record. Any money we save in gas gets eaten by repair bills. The Toyota Prius isn't much wider than the Fiat, so it doesn't fit either. Anything else we should be looking at? What we need is a car with lots of room in the front seats, great gas mileage, and low maintenance.
