As gas prices increase and the economy continues on a downward spiral, people need two things when looking for a car. They need a used car, as it is more affordable and they also need a car that gets good gas mileage.
There is a misconception people have in regards to used cars. Many people think they cannot get great gas mileage. That could not be further from the truth. In fact, the 1990s, along with the early 2000s produced a great number of cars that get amazing gas mileage.
The 2000 Honda Insight is perfect for someone who is looking for a durable used car that is affordable and will also give great gas mileage. This car is only three cylinders and gets an average of 51 mpg. The reason this car is so good on gas is it is actually a gas electric hybrid. Still, it is under $10,000, and makes a great car for someone who is looking for great gas mileage. It may not be available at your nearby dealership, but with an internet search, you can find one.
The Toyota Prius is something else someone can consider. From 2001 to 2002, Toyota made a Prius that got great gas mileage, and it is now affordable as well. At 41 mpg, you will not be wasting very much money on gas, which is perfect in today’s world.
You do not have to get a hybrid to save money in the fuel department. You can look at the Toyota Echo. The 2000 to 2003 model is very affordable, and it gets 38 mpg. It has managed to maintain its great fuel economy through the years. The older models are running strong with the newer models.
The Chevrolet Prizm is another used vehicle that will give you the kind of mileage you are looking for. You can get the 1998 to 2002 model and get mileage round 32 mpg. That is much better than quite a few of the new cars of today. You might recognize the Prizm when you see it as a Geo. This model was first a Geo, and later became a Prizm. In both cases, it manages to deliver great mileage.
Rounding out the list is the Toyota Corolla. Who could forget about the Corolla when they are looking for great gas mileage? If you are in the market for a Corolla, consider one that was made in 1998 to 2000. You will get an affordable car that gets 32 mpg. Also, a Corolla is great as far as wear and tear. You can expect the car to last for a long time. It is a durable car that you will be able to rely on.
Used cars can make great vehicles if you get the right ones. Shop around and find one that has great mileage. You will then save money on gas and on the car itself. With the current gas prices, something needs to be done, and purchasing a used car that is fuel efficient is one way to deal with the current economic state.
