I'm in the "enough talk, enough research, lemme drive already!" mode...

I think some people are offended by fuel economy discussions.

l008com · 01-12-2009, 08:06 PM

This was my thread remember? I'm not offended by the topic, I'm offended by threads that get stuck in repeat loops

theholycow · 01-12-2009, 08:15 PM

That comment was caused by but not directed at you, l008com. I was thinking of people on automotive forums who actually seem offended when someone mentions fuel economy, as if you had insulted their mother.

l008com · 01-12-2009, 08:22 PM

Yeah thats pretty much what I got on the RX-8 forum too. Back when gas as $4.50 and i was trying to decide what to get. I mentioned how bad the RX-8 is on gas, and basically the response was sports cars are supposed to be bad on gas, if you want better fuel economy get a compact car.

This mindset makes no sense to me. Sports cars are supposed to be fast - most just happen to be bad on gas. Doesn't mean they have to be.

I'm loving those numbers on the V-6 Auto. Def better than my 2002 V-8 Durango getting now!

It's got great MPG imo. This is not the Prius or Volt forum

Only prius around here is in the rear view mirror.
