It isn't much of a car but my 2006 Corolla is the most trouble free car with the best mileage I have owned in 60 years of paying for cars. Over 34 mpg AVERAGE without clever new (expensive) technology. 90k miles, one headlight bulb burned out. I occasionally pull a small 500lb trailer babying it by keeping it out of OD when necessary. The mileage was computed by 30,000 miles of fuel tickets, in all kinds of weather.
