Kia Stinger Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Comment
	Two-ton gas-powered cars that can reach 60 mph in under five seconds aren't going to match a Prius for fuel efficiency. But some (the Audi) are considerably more efficient than others (the Kia). This doesn't happen by chance. The previous-generation Audi managed 18 mpg city and 28 mpg highway in the EPA's testing. Not awful for a car of its size and performance, but Audi knew it could do better. By substituting a turbocharger for its predecessor's supercharger, and the new S5 manages a commendable 21 mpg city and 30 mpg highway. Kia, aiming at a moving target, fell short, with 19 mpg city and 25 mpg highway for both RWD and AWD versions of the GT. The four-cylinder Stinger rates 22/29 with RWD and 21/29 with AWD. In my suburban driving I was able to coax the Stinger GT AWD as high as 26 mpg, but usually I observed averages around 20 mpg. On a 70-mph highway with the A/C running I easily beat the EPA rating with an observed 28.7 mpg. So maybe the Stinger just doesn't test well. Or maybe I had a tail wind. see full Kia Stinger review

Mazda B-Series Truck Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2002	2dr Extended Cab 6ft bed 147-horsepower 3.0L V6 5-speed automatic RWD	A quick comment about motor oil: Castrol GTX Extended Mileage improved my observed MPG by 2! I have always run Castrol GTX, the non-synthetic, cheapest bottle, "dino" oil. It has always performed well as far as I could tell, but I saw a $15 jug at Wal*Mart intended/designed for the 75,000+ engines out there. On a whim I tried it, and instead of my mileage averaging 19-21, I actually got a run of 22.9. The 22.9 MPG was on a strictly highway cruising trip of 4 hours total, but I was completed surprised. I switched back to the normal GTX at the next oil change, and my mileage dropped back to 19-21 MPG. I always change oil around 4-5,000 miles. I always use high quality filters like Mobil 1. see full Mazda B-Series Truck review
