Consumer Reports Dives In
Consumer Reports recently published yet another piece taking a very hard look at EPA mileage estimates. Here's a link to the piece, along with a relevant soundbyte from the article:
"For years, automakers have been criticized for producing vehicles that get so-so gas mileage. But as gas prices climb and consumers seek more miles per gallon, it turns out that fuel economy is much worse than it appears--50 percent less on some models, a new Consumer Reports analysis reveals."

I don't have a hybrid but pretty close. My Scion xA is mistaken for one nearly every day and it gets a real 32MPG for all around driving and up to 36MPG for all highway driving like a slightly old lady.
But I want to know if there is a newer - higher - "sweet spot" for the best mileage in cars coming out of Japan and Detroit. Can anyone tell me?

Hi,
There are several ways to get product reviews. You can consult a large publication like "Consumer Reports" or visit their website www.consumerreports.org. However, reports that you will find from Consumer Reports will be written by Magazine editors and sponsored by the manufacturers of the product. I am not sure if you can trust those reviews.
On the other hand, you can review consumer reports posted on www.pissedconsumer.com. Consumer reports posted by real consumers. You get a perspective of real users of the product or service.
I hope my comment will help you to make the right decision.
Regards,
I find your blog very useful. Consumer reports at the present time can be very helpful. In case you want to buy something from this or that company you should first learn about other customers’ experience with the company. Personally I do this every time. It is the best way to protect yourself from bad customer service and poor quality products and services. There is a very good site - www.pissedconsumer.com, where you can find a bunch of consumer reports concerning literary all the companies.
Hello, I like your blog very much. I think that it is very important to stand your consumer rights. You never know when and what company is going to offend you and you have to know what to do in case you have some misunderstandings with a retailer or any other company. It is also very useful to read Consumer Reports to get to know other people’s experience in this or that situation.
This is really a wonderful invention.to this thing we call creativity.
