2006	4dr Sedan 200-horsepower 3.8L V6 4-speed automatic FWD	Good for a speedy V6 and a huge car. see full Pontiac Grand Prix review
2005	4dr Sedan 200-horsepower 3.8L V6 4-speed automatic FWD	Thus far, I have averaged 23 and 26 mpg, both times have had roughly a 70 mile highway trip out of 200 miles. Overall, I find this to be acceptable. see full Pontiac Grand Prix review
2002	4dr Sedan 200-horsepower 3.8L V6 4-speed automatic FWD	HORRIBLE. 12-16mpg combined with both city and driving. see full Pontiac Grand Prix review
2002	4dr Sedan supercharged 240hp 3.8L V6 4-speed automatic FWD	BEFORE the switch to ethanol-mixed fuel, my supercharged V6 averaged 22mpg, getting 19 city and a staggering 34 highway. If you do long highway miles and want more comfort than any econo-box can offer, this is the car for you! see full Pontiac Grand Prix review

Pontiac Grand Prix Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2006	4dr Sedan 303-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Great V8 exhaust note and instant acceleration comes at the cost of about 19 mpg in combined driving, versus 25 with my new car. That is a 30% increase. (the new car is 600 pounds lighter though...) see full Pontiac Grand Prix review
2005	4dr Sedan 303-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD	17-19 mpg in the city. 25 If I drive on the intersate. 30 is possible at 60mph. Most of my driving is in the city. The beautiful v8 makes it impossible to stay out of the gas, but it can run on REG fuel. see full Pontiac Grand Prix review

Nissan Frontier Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	4dr Extended Cab 6ft bed 154-horsepower 2.5L I4 5-speed manual RWD	Averaging 22mpg for th full 57,000 miles I have driven. Winter mileage is less and summer is more Using winter snow and ice tires in winter months. Hwy tires in summer months. see full Nissan Frontier review
2008	4dr Extended Cab 6ft bed 154-horsepower 2.5L I4 5-speed manual RWD	The best so far has been 27 mpg. The worst 19mpg. Average for over 6,000 miles of mostly highway driving has been 23 mpg. At 17,800 miles on odometer the milage is down to 22 mpg. I added 4 new snow tires that have reduced mpg. see full Nissan Frontier review

Nissan Frontier Real Gas Mileage: Cons
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2013	4dr Crew Cab 5ft bed 261-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic RWD	I keep a detailed log of fuel economy. I commute on hour each way, every day. 50% of the time is spent at 65 mph on the highway, and the remainder between 50 and 60 on 2-lane country roads. Only a few stops in between. Very consistently getting 21.5 to 22.3 mpg. I rarely rev it above 4000 RPM - only when passing someone. That happens maybe once or twice per tank. I am underwhelmed by the fuel economy. Full-sized trucks with larger, stronger V8s get similar economy. see full Nissan Frontier review
2011	4dr Crew Cab 5ft bed 261-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range	This 2011 Frontier Crew Cab at 4,000 miles is averaging 19-21 hwy, 16-19 city depending on weather and traffic conditions. see full Nissan Frontier review
2011	4dr Crew Cab 5ft bed 261-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic RWD	Well it has a 4.0L V6, so I guess I should have expected it. It does have nice power though. see full Nissan Frontier review
2011	4dr Crew Cab 5ft bed 261-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic RWD	Well, the EPA ratings are 15 city 20 Highway. The salesman I dealt with says it is easy to get 20 Highway, and I am not an aggressive driver. The V6 is geared low enough that it does 1800 rpm at 60MPH, so my light foot will help here. We will see ! see full Nissan Frontier review
2009	4dr Extended Cab 6ft bed 261-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic RWD	Even though it is a powerful V6, economy was on par with much more powerful V8 engines. see full Nissan Frontier review
2006	4dr Crew Cab 5ft bed 265-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range	I cant complain about the gas mileage it was around 22mpg when new but with a lift and tires I have sucked some of that away see full Nissan Frontier review
2006	4dr Extended Cab 6ft bed 265-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic RWD	Fuel Economy is terrible with the V6. Just Awful see full Nissan Frontier review
2005	4dr Crew Cab 5ft bed 265-horsepower 4.0L V6 5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range	Overrated to what is identified. I know it is a truck but the mileage is far from what Nissan claims. see full Nissan Frontier review
2004	2dr Extended Cab 6ft bed 180-horsepower 3.3L V6 5-speed manual 4WD, part-time w/low range	Average 17/21 during the summer. A friends 96 F-150 (also 4x4) gets 16/20 with a V-8. Expected much better mileage from a small truck. see full Nissan Frontier review
