As gas prices go up people are changing from 8mpg trucks to 30+mpg hondas. I have seen many hondas since the prices have gone up. My dad has a truck that does 8mpg, so he drive my car everywhere now when I don't. He is thinking of trading his truck in for a car like mine. Will the prices of cars with high mpg go up? If they are when is a good time to buy a car that has good mpg?

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)
Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.
These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.
1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.
2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.
3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.
4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.
The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

In Japan, the Kei cars with 658cc motors start from around $10,000. The econo cars like the Fit start from $13,000, the new Fit hybrid starts from $16,000, Civic hybrid starts around $22,000 and the base Accord (TSX over here in North America) starts from around $24,000. They are priced just the same as over here with smaller cars cheaper than bigger ones. I just used Honda as an example because this is a Honda board but it's the same for all brands.
The only small car that costs a lot are the new 100% electric cars like the Nissan Leaf starting from around $38,000.

Its interesting how people look at saving gas where if you race your car youll spend a bit more. You have to pay to play so get used it. It must be fun to throw money in the furnace like that to not even being able to watch it go up in fumes.
My evo is fuel efficient only until I start racing it all crazy them bye,bye gas mileage. My srt is almost like that too only it saves a bit more. It's not so bad once you get a tune for that kind of situation though. Which is why Im more focused on getting my car tuned up for situations like this.
