I just think an Aveo should get double the MPG of a fat 4x4 truck....... yea, my GMC will not do as well in the hills either.
Anyway, I hope for GM's sake the aveo can do better than 26mpg, even in Cali. I just drove my Grandmother's (who passed away in Feb) car- 1998 Civic (auto) from TX to near Reno NV, it got 35 mpg for the 1350 mile trip, there are a lot of mountains in NM, AZ, UT and NV and the car was full of stuff from her house.
