I drove many big SUVs before and am planning to get a fuel efficient sedan
to commute to work (50% HWY, 50 % not so heavy local).
My wife has a 06 Accord V6, I loved driving it but the gas mileage is
terrible (17-18mpg). I may get up to 20mpg in my driving road condition but
it is not a real saving in gas to me.

Here is the dilemma, I like to save gas and I don't want to lose fun of
driving and stability/performance. Owned a Civic in 80s and feel it "heavy"
when two or three adult sit in, struggling when it is taking more than one
adult passenger was my impression with Civic.

This Civic/accord I4 will be 99% my commute car and at most with my teen
daughter for local soccer practice.

What is your opinion?
I have been driving trucks for more than 15 years, any modern sedan is
considered agile responsive car to me. Not like my wife, she can not settle
with Accord 4 cyl., must be a V6. to drive her 40mph top roads to office..
