Gas prices

[.RJ]

When you are concerned with fuel economy, often times you have a small engine, and do not operate in high RPMs. It is hard to get the best fuel economy when you are shifting at 5000 RPM.

A smaller engine is actually more efficient at higher rpms.... generally, exceptions apply, etc, etc.

you could also consider something like a golf tdi. i'm not trying to endorse vw's, but those little turblow diesel buggers get like 50 mpg and have still have like 200 ft/lbs o' torque.

My dad has one of those, its quite nice. I'd love to see the euro (diesel) accord i-CTDi here in the US.
