Ted--I'm 5'3", and do fine in the Protege sedan. I will admit, though, that when I had the Focus rental for a couple of days, I enjoyed sitting up a little higher.
Do you need one in restaurants too? :P
(and I swear, Mike and Raymond, if you try to say that EVERY week is Pick-on-Dale week, I'll be on the next plane to Canada and/or PA)
Boy, does my Protege need to be washed.
and not every week is Pick on Dale week, only the ones with 7 days in them.
And ditto what Ray said
My elderly grandparents happened to walk by just then, however, so I decided it would be better to give them a ride home rather than continue to wait.
Seriously.
Seriously.

My power didn't go off! Have been in since Wednesday due to power off everywhere else in NC. It's frustrating not being able to go to a bank for cash to buy food. Good thing I stocked up before the storm.
Went out today, late paying bills due to storm. On the way to the Post Office -- WHAM!! I was rearended at a traffic light by a Lexus GS300 SUV!
Fortunately he had slowed down to make a turn, no damage, not even paint scruffed.
Rearenders are the state sport in NC. I have seen as many as three at one intersection in less than an hour.
My Pro hasn 't been washed since June, what a crummy mess. Water restrictions due to drought, yet we have had rain and more rain followed by snow and ice.

It was a 75% highway, 25% city split. On the highway I drove 120-130km/h (75-80mph???) and in the city 70-80km/h (45mph???).
According to Mazda Canada, city fuel consumption should be 10L/100kms city and 7L/100kms highway.
Is my fuel consumption this bad b/c I've driven above 90km/h and that sucked a lot more gas?
Dinu
I'd say take a bit of lead out of your shoes. :P

I'll try, but I have to drive 120km/h on the highway: everyone drives this speed and I couldn't handle 110km/h anyway.
Now the auto tranny sure eats a little more gas (:
I can't wait for that 00 1.8 LX TE I'll get.

I wonder how manufacturers test their fuel consumption they report to gov't agencies. At what speed?
Dinu
The key to maximizing mpg is to drive at the lowest rpm in top gear without lugging the engine. For my AT-equipped 1.6L, this works out to be around 45mph in OD with the torque lock-up converter engaged. And how quickly you get up to speed (and down) greatly affects it too.
