My last car was a 1994 Jeep Cherokee (with 250,000 miles on it) that got about 16-17 mpg in the city. I could accellerate as fast as I wanted to, and I didn't have to worry about warming it up, and I could run the defrost whenever I wanted to - and it STILL got close to the mpg my FEH gets now in the city.

I guess that's my biggest beef. Ford touts the fuel savings - they even have a calculator that adds up all the money you'll save on gas on their Website - but in reality, depending on your geography, the weather, your commute distance, and your driving style, it may not be any better than a regular SUV at all.

I wish just one of the many reviews I read had mentioned that. Instead, everything I read raved about the FEH.
