My dad drove his Civic (non si, non hybrid) about 300 miles to my house the other day and, according to him, got 43 mpg. Freeway all the way... cruise control at 2000rpm (about 63 mph). Unless he mis-calculated, that is very impressive!

I've been thinking about a high mileage car too... I'm thinking Prius or Civic hybrid. Both boring, but hey, cheap! Plus the Prius has a 10 year warranty on the hybrid bits... pretty impressive.
