In the next year or so, I might buy this:
Go ahead, talk shit, I can take it.
At least it gets about 30 mpg highway if driven sensibly. Better than my four cylinder grocery getter which isn't geared well for interstate travel like the 'Vette.
Yeah, I do a lot of road tripping... let's see; 7k in 2012, 12k in 2013, 12k in 2014, and this year is anomalous with only 2500 miles of legit road trip, but the year ain't over yet, and I'll probably put another 3k during thanksgiving.
The last thing I want to do it with is with a little tiny screaming 4-banger.
But it's not like I have any issues doing it with my current car. Except, you know, mechanical, but I have a combination of bad luck, kinda shitty build quality / design, and just sheer mileage and statistics.
Ironically, it would be _more efficient_ than my current 25-27 highway mpg at ~75mph.
