Large sedans ruled the road, back in the day. It's just an American thing. Try as they may, no one builds a big four-door for the masses like Detriot.Were it not for a well-placed (okay, make that chart-topping) Toyota and a middle-of-the-road Kia, the Best Gas Mileage Large Sedan category would be purely domestic ... a niche that Detroit should loathe to lose to the imports.
While the Toyota Avalon may have technically grabbed the top honors in the Best Gas Mileage Large Sedan category, this year's crown goes to the iconic Chevrolet Impala. More than just because ... Chevy nailed down four of the top ten spots. Keep in mind that the road trip in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas: A Savage Journey to the Heart of the American Dream could have never taken place in a Toyota. But where is the big red convertible Chevy of today?
But lets not forget the fans of the blue oval. Although the Ford Five Hundred may have a forgettable name, it deserves an honorable mention. Perhaps they'll decide to change the name to Taurus and crank up the MPGs for 2008.
