Re: Domestic Automobiles
My wife, before I married her, bought one of those Renault Alliance's. Bought it brand new. Somewhere around 1980. Honest, you had to downshift it to 3rd gear, AND turn the air conditioning off, to maintain your speed going up any kind of hill. But all they bragged about was it getting 40 plus miles per gallon.

Least I forget my Chevy Colorado truck and with only 5cyl's, still manages to tow my Z24, and an 18ft car hauler anywhere I want to go (4200lbs approximate towing weight). However when I see a Toyota Tacoma or a Nissan Frontier with a trailer behind them, it's nearly always a single axle type! Toyota is back at the drawing board now, because the Colorado truck is coming back in the 2015 model year with meaner looks, and a 300hp V6 that someday may pry my hands from my 220hp 2004 Colorado (that currently has 166,000 miles on it)!
