2002 Rio - cheapest car I've every owned both in gas and cost-to-repair.

I have to agree, though along the lines, mine was also the cheapest on features, no anti-lock breaks, all manual except the transmission. The only "Frill" I found for it (which I didn't realize was an extra till I heard a Kia Lot in McComb has many cars for sale without Air conditioners!) was the fact that it does have air in my car. I drove from Lake Charles, LA to Brookhaven, MS and got like 55-60mpg average.. I'd fill up in Westlake, LA (west of Lake Charles), and drive 4 hours to Brookhaven (1 hour south of Jackson, just north of McComb) and have 1/4 tank left. The car's got a 12gallon tank, much smaller than most vehichles!
