Wow, this thread started out with discussions on the 70's gas crisis and what others remember. It has taken many twists and turns.

Very interesting discussions here.

I've had my XFire for 2 months now and absolutly have no regrets. Started looking at them over a year ago and was trying to decide between a Crossfire and a Nissan Titan. I know, what a diff.... I wanted a pickup and almost pulled the trigger on one. Glad I waited as I get almost 26 mpg with the xfire and I think nothing about going for a ride.

That Titan would have been just sitting in my driveway as you can't give them away and I'd feel guilty about every mile I put on a Titan.
