Okay, I used to own an Aztek. Awesome SUV. I didn't expect to see the smart on the list....and at #1. Terrible.

Didn't I just see this same list under another name

Several of those comments look strangely familiar on all those cars

Sure, the ForTwo looks cute, but after you drive it you won't be smiling anymore.
Don't know about you guys, but I have 11,6XX miles on my Fortwo, and I'm still smiling when I drive mine!

I'll keep this in mind when I'm buzzing along at 70 getting 46 mpg. Old Mad magazine saying...... "What, me worry?"

WT*! Forgive my language. Personally I try to avoid anything Yahoo related. Everyone on Yahoo Answers don't even research their answers and will spam it up with false information just to gain useless points. The only thing I like about Yahoo is my mail service, and that could use improvement.

Yahoo is a complete biased community that offers nothing useful but decent online mail.

Me mad, me very mad. Someone might receive a nice e-mail about this bull...

Not to mention that it's powered by cars.com, the worst car reviewing group on Earth...

2009 smart fortwo

We don't have a problem with small cars in general (we're big fans of the Mini Cooper), just with ones that don't deliver on the benefits of going small. The pint-sized ForTwo sacrifices a lot of passenger space for a relatively unimpressive 41 mpg on the highway, has an SUV-like propensity to roll over, and is equipped with an aggravating sequential manual transmission. Sure, the ForTwo looks cute, but after you drive it you won't be smiling anymore.

My other car is an Aztek

Like Jeff, I have had an Aztek. In fact, I still have mine for the times when my wife and I both have to be able to carry more than one kid or friend. Since this doesn't happen often, it has only gotten about 5k miles the past 3 years, but it has 80k total. I like the car for a lot of reasons, but I know that it wasn't the most attractive car by most people's standards.

I bet they are part of the face book group we got shut down. I say this because everything he said was backward.

Does Kelsey Mays have a drivers license let alone know how to drive anything other than a team of horses?

Strange logic here, what new NON-hybrid car is that high a MPG?
