I'd rather have the new diesel Audi A4 coming out in a few years.

3.0L Diesel
240hp
406ft-lb tq
40mpg highway
50 state emissions compliant

Plenty of power and great gas mileage. Though, being an Audi the price will be a bit high.


Right now though, I'm pretty happy with my gas mileage. I've got a diesel GMC Suburban and a gas V4/V8 GMC Envoy Denali. Both get over 22mpg highway and 15mpg city and have enough power to tow my atv/snowmobile trailers with ease. The Suburbans and Blazers we had previously were lucky to break into the teens, so 20+ is good enough for me. grin In an emergency I could fill the suburban with off-road diesel from the tanks on my property and drive for almost 1,000 miles before a refill, all with plenty of supplies in the back. For me, that's hard to beat.
