The excursion is an LEV, contrary to the media hype, it gets 13 - 14 mpg around town and 15 - 17 on the highway, that's real world mileage and better then a toyota four runner.
No, that's an outrage.

You didn't. And I said, "IMHO" which means: In My Humble Opinion to hilight the fact that I was offering my opinion.

Agreed.

I'm not convinced that big trucks have to get such pitiful gas mileage. Also, I strongly suspect (warning: opinion) that the majority of peple who drive these behemoths don't need them.
