I live in the Republic of Ireland where
petrol is currently 1.05 euro per litre
($5.15 per US gallon). I drive a 1.2lt 80bhp
fiat which get 40miles to the US gallon
at worst (city driving).
I can carry 4 passangers + a large amount
of luggage. On the rare occasion I need
to carry oversized equipment/materials I attach a trailer.
I have rarely seen an SUV (where did this name come from)
in this country or in the US that looks like it has ever
gone off road or even carried the full compliment of passangers.
