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. I avoided foreign cars for 40 years, but this was the only model that looked like it would allow me to drive alot and still fit my retirement income.

The last car was a 92 Taurus that I gave up on at 308,000 miles, but there were always little $$$ needed. About 20-24 mpg, but a lot more comfortable than the Corolla.

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
