Re: Honda Fit Feedback wanted
41 mpg is great.
Now I guess the next problem
I'm facing is selling my Ram pickup.
Dealers don't want em.
I got 41 mpg from Denver to Las Vegas. Haven't quite figured out
around-town mpg. Everything they advertise about the incredible
storage room is correct. When in the front seats you can't believe
you are in a small car. It feels big! I love this car. Best design
yet. Only complaint-only 10.8 gallon gas tank.

Which means that right now, buying a used pickup and paying for the gas
is probably cheaper than buying a new small car and not paying for the
gas.

Gah - I wish they'd forget that "mini window" after the A-pillar treatment,
it's terrible for outward visibility (for me) - other than that - I think
it looks great.

I bought my 2008 Fit Sport AT in March before the $4 gas arrived
-great mpg after about 3000 miles
-very quiet and smooth to me (compared to my now parked '97 Nissan pickup)
-very easy to park
-tight fit and finish
-plenty of passenger and cargo room
-all around fun to drive

I realize your post is back from late May, but I wanted to chime in.
My brother in law has had one for about a year now, and I drove it on
a 300mile trip last year. Fantastic little car. It winds up like a
top when you go to pass someone and the acceleration isn't gonna press
you to the back of your seat, but I'll say that my wife and I are
secretly hoping he tires of it in a few years and we can buy it from
him. We'd love it as a second car far more efficient vehicle to the
minivan when we aren't schlepping kids around en masse.
