damn, what car is comfortable, good for long distance and not a fuel guzzler?
cars from toyota?
-
i'd go with Toyotas or Hondas.. they have excellent fuel efficiency
-
hondas? aren't their VTECs, fuel guzzlers?
the cars i'm looking at are for long distance drives, probably 5hrs at least
-
yeps, a nice toyota or a honda ....
not much point looking at anything else ...
but mind, you're talking about long distance around this region right ? ....
cos japanese cars are generally a bit light for super highways ...

Don't let the "Hummer" moniker fool you. The H3 uses the same chassis as the plebian Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon trucks.
And with GM on the verge of folding, buying one of their products now might not be a wise choice...

i'll be using the car to commute around the provinces of thailand.
but that's in future, now i'm just monitoring the price and how much to put aside.

if it's thailand, then buying a toyota would be wise ....
they are all made locally, sticker price is lower ...

VTEC is fuel efficient for surburban driving
they don't activate the valves till u start to rev to a certain RPM
so if i go fast, and it hits the rev, the floodgates open

dude ... you dont' drive 160km/h on the highways, the fuel consumption will go up proportionally of course .....
to give you an idea .... at 180km/h, my civic drank almost half a tank, in less than 10 minutes .....
if you're looking to save fuel ... cruise at, say, 100km/h .... and you can get from bangkok to petcha on a single tank ....

Wow. New car prices are plummeting in Singapore. Probably because the government has found new ways to fleece motorists there (*cough*ERP*cough*).
