It's becoming more and more painful to have one car! This conflict, that conflict, waiting for this ride or that ride, asking relatives to use their car...this is getting old! I thought that I could hold off on the second car for another year but it looks like this summer will be the moment of truth! We've been a one car family for a loooong time and have tried avoiding a second car by carpooling, bumming rides, and taking the bus...
Here is a quick list of potential second cars based on budget:
Honda Fit: (33 and 38 mpg) heard there is alooong waiting list :(
Toyota Matrix/Pontiac Vibe: (30 and 36 mpg)
Mazda 3: (26 and 33 mpg)
Kia Rio5: (35 and 38 mpg ...auto trans)
Saturn Ion: (~24 and 32 mpg)
VW Rabbit: ( 22 and 30 mpg) Why is this lower than the above?
Note: no hybrid due to high cost of acquiring one, even a used vehicle.
