Ford Taurus X Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	4dr Wagon 263-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed automatic AWD	For an AWD beast, 25.6 miles per US gallon on the highway (6 hr run) into ski country, on snow tires, is pretty darned good at 70 mph. see full Ford Taurus X review

Ford Taurus X Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	4dr Wagon 263-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed automatic AWD	In town we regularly got 15-16 mpg, and we rarely cracked 22 mpg on the highway. This was consistent with the 15/22 EPA ratings. see full Ford Taurus X review

Kia Sedona Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Comment
2008	Most Kia Sedonas earn EPA ratings of 18 mpg city, 24 mpg highway. This is just a bit worse than the Sienna's 18/25, but well below the Odyssey's 19/28, at least on the highway. But the SX Limited, with more heft and different tires, rates only 17/22, the lowest of any current minivan. In my real-world sub-freezing driving the trip computer reported averages between 16 and 21 in the suburbs (depending on the number of stops, amount of traffic, whether the engine was already warmed up, etc.) and about 25 on the highway. The Sienna managed about the same--but with all-wheel-drive. A front-wheel-drive Toyota should do a little better. In somewhat warmer weather, the Odyssey managed as high as 25 on my standard home-to-school run. see full Kia Sedona review

2009	4dr Minivan, ext. 250-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	18mpg in the city - typical for minivans but not good see full Kia Sedona review
2008	4dr Minivan, ext. 250-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Er, economy is not the right word to use here. It gulps fuel, even when driven fairly carefully. see full Kia Sedona review
2006	4dr Minivan, ext. 244-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Other mini-van that we considered had a better fuel economy rating [but really not by much]. see full Kia Sedona review
2006	4dr Minivan, ext. 244-horsepower 3.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	The 2006 Sedona gets about 1-2 MPG less in real life MPG reports, compared to its Toyota and Honda competition see full Kia Sedona review
