Nissan Versa Note Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Comment
2014	Like that in the Versa sedan, the Versa Note's trip computer regularly reported averages in the low 40s in both suburban and highway driving. Drive the car with little regard for fuel economy and the average will drop, but only into the mid-30s. With a feather-light right foot and good luck with traffic lights I managed nearly 50 mpg in one trip home from my son's school. Trip computers often read one-to-two mpg high. Even if we assume that this is the case with the Versa Note, these averages impress. Based on EPA ratings, the Versa Note barely edges out the Fiesta, 31 mpg city / 40 mpg highway vs. 29/39. While these readings are typical of cars in this class and even the next one up (the Nissan Sentra is rated 30/39), it seems especially easy to achieve 40 mpg in the real world in either Versa variant. see full Nissan Versa Note review

Buick Rainier Real Gas Mileage: Cons

2004	4dr SUV 290-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic AWD	An AWD V8 body on frame SUV/truck like the Rainier will be a gas pig. Mid to high teens are all you should expect. The benefit of poor gas mileage is strong towing performance. see full Buick Rainier review
