We discuss lots of topics about the Versa and gas mileage is one that 
has lots of different answers from lots of different folks.
I'm quite happy with the pick-up.  I have the hatch and the EPA 
considers it a midsize vehicle based on interior space.  Combine that 
with a relatively small four banger and you're not looking at a s****ts 
car wannabe.  On the highway, where I can really use acceleration, it 
gets the job done.
