**********, did you check out the new cruze clean turbo diesel? I know we all bust each other's chops around here but you'd be doing yourself a disservice by not taking a close look at that car.

By many accounts, it's real tough to stay in full electric mode in that Volt, which means gas mileage plummets the instant that gas engine fires up, and as soon as it's on, it will kick in to assist the electric motors. all by design. So best averages show the VOlt gets ~60mpg equivalent.

the volt stickers for $38K+

The new clean diesel engines are the latest technology, and it's impressive. The turbo clkean diesel in the new cruze get 67mpg, besting the Volt.

The clean diesel version stickers for $22k

really, get it instead.
