ok, yea....i found THAT! i was talking JUST their "LIST of High MPG Cars".

why isn't smart listed among the top? can't remember the exact figures, but it should have been at least in the TOP THREE!

i just felt their "LIST" was INCOMPLETE without smart listed in its proper place.........

True, but depends on how many go on your trips. With just me and my wife, the smart would save at least 200% on gas. The Pathfinder gets 14/17, the smart 33/41. Let's just hope no kids come along our way so we can keep using a smart!

We need a new comparison; "People-miles per gallon."

Ya know, I think you're right. When you go to the "Search by MPG" button in the left column, enter the parameters 2008/Small Cars/Combined MPG >30, no smart listed, and it should be. In fact, in the results of that search, the smart should be #2, right between the Honda Civic Hybrid and the Toyota Yaris. But, on that list smart is not noted.

Neither is the Prius ... I imagine because it isn't a 'small car'. Maybe that's how the smart fell through the cracks? It is not a small car either, it is a micro car. Hmmm?

and another example of how 'smart' is LEFT OUT!!How Hard Is It To Find Car You Want? - Automotive News Story - WRTV Indianapolis

a list of the 'hardest cars to find' and the TOYOTA PRIUS tops the list with only a 7 day dealer supply???


how about a MINUS 664.4 day dealer supply???

no one had better say that i don't give 'equal time':
