I realize I used the wrong word in my post. I said "mileage" but what I meant was the miles on the odometer. I meant to say I'm happy we got a car with really low miles for its age and price.

It's true that the Camry isn't as fuel efficient as the Prizm, but it's not that bad at all. I'm happy with it. It's better than most cars out there. And we'll definitely pay attention to the fuel efficiency for at least the first several tanks. I want to get to know this car. Already, it's the car closest to the street and is getting the most use.
