small high mpg car?
My last Frontier, a 1998, got almost 30 mpg. It would average 29.x mpg.
That's with an extended cab, 2wd, and the 2.4 engine. Great truck. This
would tow two bikes easily, I used to haul a trailer to the dump every
so often with no issues. You might run into some issues towing up a
really long hill at freeway speeds, but otherwise it's fine. What's even
better is that you can put one big bike in the back, or two dirt bikes,
if you want.
My current 2006 Nissan Frontier crew cab get's 20mpg. This Frontier is
the best vehicle I've ever owned. Ever. The 4.0 engine has just 30hp
less than the same year Chevy full size with a V8, at 265hp. I can tow a
flatbed trailer with a car on the back down the highway at 75mph to a
show in another city with zero issues. The worst it's ever gotten is
14.x mpg hauling a car/trailer, but that was to a show at a higher
elevation. It would get double what you're current truck gets. The truck
has 105,000 miles, and hasn't had ANY problems.
