I love how Ford is saving money these days. I love our Volvo but everytime I see a Focus I can't help but feel a little resentful. I even feel bad for the Mazda3 for being born of the same genes as the Focus.

But as far as gas mileage. If you're buying a car like that, gas mileage should be the furthest thing from your mind. When we bought the Volvo, we new what we were getting into. A turbo 5 cylinder and AWD. Gas guzzler from hell. If we wanted to save $$ we could've gotten the 2.4i. It's a bitch having two cars that require premium and don't get 40mpgs but they're both so worth it.
