2005 MINI Cooper S 210 whp/2600 lbs, 30 mpg driven gently, 20 mpg driving like you stole it!! room up front for 6'5" people, NO room in back for any people, but the seats fold flat back there. Tons of fun.

depends on the day

91 Jeep Wrangler on 32's, generally with the top and doors off on nice days

or

07 Trailblazer SS with 400RWHP ( yay for mods).

Both suck on gas, but oh well. Might get rid of the trailblazer for a 2500HD or something more useful.

Due to cash for clunkers, and the fact that not a single dodge 1/2 pickup truck could be had under that deal(I wanted a 5.7 Club Cab 2wd or 4wd) a 09 Mini Cooper S 35-40 with good gas(New Jersey and south, I don't know why) and highway speed(80 or under), 30-32 driven racecar like..and up here with winter crap gas....I think it got 18 at Epping power shifting to a severly traction limited 15.3's over 14 or 15 1/4 mile break in runs. Launching a stick FWD with run flats is not easy, but more fun than a 6 speed 5.7 RT Challenger with goodyears.

The turbo is better on gas than the blower.
