Audi A7 / S7 / RS7 Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Comment
2014	Now for the second half of the Audi A7 TDI's one-two punch: its diesel engine. No one denies the efficiency of diesels, and the latest Audi V6 doesn't disappoint. In the EPA's tests the TDI achieves 24 mpg city, 38 mpg highway. The gas engine's 18/28 ratings are impressive for a powerful gas V6 in a heavy all-wheel-drive car, but are no match for the diesel's. In my real-world driving the A7 TDI's trip computer generally reported mid-30s in the suburbs and about 40 on the highway (a little under this number on 70-mph Interstates, a little over it where speed limits were lower). Diesel can be unpleasant to put in the car--it's slimy and does not evaporate if spilled like gas does--but the A7 TDI can go up to 800 miles between fill-ups. In comparison, the gas V6 manages low 20s in the suburbs and high 20s on the highway. This said, the competing diesel from BMW is even more efficient. see full Audi A7 / S7 / RS7 review

Ford Explorer Sport Trac Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	4dr SUT 292-horsepower 4.6L V8 6-speed automatic 4WD w/low range	99 Dodge Durango with 5.9 V8 got better fuel economy with same driving habits. Expected better with smaller V8 and 6 speed trans. see full Ford Explorer Sport Trac review
2008	4dr SUT 210-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD w/low range	Terrible. I've owned fullsize pickups and SUV so I know what to expect. I've never seen the average mpg display read over 15mpg for the six months I've owned it. The main reason I bought this was the combination AWD and 4WD transfer case, but it doesn't have a 2 wheel drive position like my Sierra did. Boy do I miss that, I averaged 20 mpg per tank. see full Ford Explorer Sport Trac review
2007	4dr SUT 292-horsepower 4.6L V8 6-speed automatic 4WD w/low range	highway mileage is very good, better than my lighter V6 Ranger; 21mpg on the highway @ 75mph on flat road. City, with the remote start in winter, with the AWD kicking in, and lead foot acceleration nets me 13mpg. A light foot can get 15mpg city see full Ford Explorer Sport Trac review
2002	4dr SUT 203-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic RWD	I think we all wish for 30 mpd-thats unrealistic when you have 10000+ lbs on the road when towing. see full Ford Explorer Sport Trac review
