That's a great thing about the Sonota. Big tank, good highway mpg. Often will fill up and TC resets to 500+. Good for trips to NC which is about 450 miles each way. We are going in May, but taking the Acura, so I know I have to stop midway to pump gas.

I guarantee if you found a car you like you wouldn't worry whether it got 33 or 34 mpg highway.
This is a big advantage to most mid size cars vs. their compact siblings. Almost the same highway MPG real world, but 50% larger tank capacity.

Our RDX gets about 28-30 straight freeway driving. I bet if you filled up as you leave and drove conservatively you could make or come very close to making it. If you're driving at 75-80......forget it. If you could find some leaded gas I'm pretty sure you could make it easily. I bought a tank in northern Michigan once and couldn't believe what a difference it made.
If traffic is bad, might get 25 on the run. Usually I can hit 28ish. Still, too low for a 16 gallon tank!

When gas prices get north of $3/gal again, all those folks will want to dump the (relative) gas guzzlers and move into hybrids or more fuel economy models, losing their shirts on the trade in the process.
Which is why I'm hoping gas prices stay low through the summer, so that when I'm back in the market there will be large incentives on the fuel sippers I'll be looking at.

My S4 eats tires and brakes like no other. Part of it is sheer speed, but part of it is all that freaking weight. Also, the spirited driver will notice 300 lbs easily when travelling winding roads. It just feels like more "WORK" to push a heavy Camaro through twisties than "fun" like a 3,300 lb car.
I know when choosing a V6 Accord over a 4 cylinder long ago I rationalized it as only 3 MPG, but I was gaining a lot of HP in exchange. It has to be taken in context. Lighter weight improves EVERYTHING.

Good for a short person maybe not so for a taller person.

Compact-wise, I was most impressed by the new Civic (sharp looking, improved interior, tons of legroom in back). The Jetta 1.4T is a nice package also with a huge rear seat and trunk and I'll bet there's deals to be had on those right now. The Elantra GT remains a favorite, but I'd go the used route on that since the 2016 base models have been decontented and I could get a certified 2014 with the 100k warranty.
The standard engine, 1.6 Liter T, is 27 city and 37 highway, equal to the others. My '14 Malibu does about 4 over its highway rating on level interstate driving around our area so I'd extrapolate the 16 Malibu will do better than its 37 rating on level interstate at rated speeds.

What I'd like to know is with the A/C or heat on along with other accessories that 215 miles range may be 190 on long trips??? I golf with someone in NY who has the bigger S model 2015, he loves it. Raves about it. He was telling me about not getting the larger tires 21' cause it decrease's the range close to 3%. lol.

Golf R's seem to sell pretty darn fast though, and pretty much at sticker or close to it still.

Sentra a mid-size? Huh? The Sentra looks like a compant sedan, not a mid-sizer. And how do they sell? Rebates, eh?
