ouch
Was a bit foolhardy with that ad - what were they thinking. Still good to see they allowed the comments up and didn't cull the more negative ones...
I still find it insane the MPG US cars get. I drive an 11 year old car, a fairly big one at that, with a 2 litre engine and STILL get 40 to 45 mpg - my dad has the same car but the diesel version and gets 65 mpg on the motorway! This is a bog standard Rover 400 - nothing fancy. So why can't they produce something similar in the US? Is it that much cheaper to build an inefficent car? Even the Prius advertises 65 but only really delivers 55 mpg... it's madness!

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miles_per_gallon
"Note that because the imperial gallon is significantly larger than the U.S. gallon, MPG figures are 20.095% higher in the UK than in the U.S. for the same real fuel economy."

If they culled the more negative ones
They wouldn't have any comments at all. You'd think they'd lace them with comments from Chrysler employees or something. Maybe they hate themselves too.
