| New Hyundai Sonata Goes Over 900 Miles Per Tank Full How much is 1,400 kilometers? About 900 miles? This is what I just saw on TV, Hyundai annoucing their new hybrid Sonata with some battery technology that they claim is "revolutionary".
I hope is not another ridiculously expensive hybrid that nobody wants to buy because it defeats the purpose of saving money on gas. |

kudos:1 | 1400 / 1.609 = 870.11 miles. Pretty nice mileage if it's not over-priced as you've stated.
IMO, what these guys need to do is put in an engine just large enough to power the alternator to charge the batteries. 350-500 CC's would probably be enough.
Then, you'll see some kick-ass mileage! |

The same can be said for Chrysler and GM. Oh wait, Chrysler can't even make transmissions anymore, they had to ask Hyundai for help beg Hyundai to lend them their transmission |

I stopped discriminating bad-reputation vehicles ever since I bought a GMC Sonoma pick-up and it turned out to be the most reliable workhorse I ever owned, leaving the Nissan and other japanese trucks looking like wimps. I owned them and they all made me spend money except the Sonoma. I also drove a Kia Cerato and it had the same handling as a Honda Accord. |

Ten years ago I would have agreed with you. These days I can't. Same goes for modern Kia vehicles. They're finally starting to make their own designs, and performance and reliability are way up. |

WGAF about how many MPG? It's not like all it uses is gas, it still needs electricity to recharge. Electricity isn't free.
What matters ultimately is the cost/mile driven including amortization. Hope it's really low, because it's a Hyundai to start with... |

So your two friends told you to post on BBR and they provided the Subject line of "Ford Escapes Are Pieces Of Crap"
The posting implied that was now YOUR opinion after speaking with your two friends, which you later recant after I and others pointed you to some facts |
