I think the weakness to the 2.4/xB is the city. You drive a lot of city and have a lead foot, then it drops a lot. This car is comparable to my Hyundai Sonata, which is a full size and has a 2.4L. What I do like though, is the rear leg room in the xB is the same as the sonata so I can live with the lower than civic gas mileage.

I also came from a 98 ford ranger ;)

Uhh so how is the 2az-fe motor not made for great gas mileage, yet you think 30 mpg is great? The xb2 can hit and/or exceeed 30 mpg and I've done it before (current best ever for me is 33 mpg).

Do I have to explain everything? Its just my opinion. Its up for debate if you want. But honestly I don't care. Like I said its just my opinion

While not the most fuel efficient out there, the 2.4l is well powered and very durable.

I think thats an accurate and fair assessment.

My thoughts exactly.

not sure, but i'm just going to have to refill up and hope it was a fluke... especially with this gas price going up...

I have now tried both Shell and BP fuels, while watching mileage, and both perform very well.
