On a side note, my Tahoe gets a consistent 17 mpg, and my wifes V8 Volvo XC90 gets 23 mpg on the interstate. Not great, but not horrible.

Yup, I believe so. If it were me I probably would have bought an Odyssey, I liked the extra power and size. But it's the wifey's car, and she liked the styling of the MPV. Overall it was a good choice.

Our SUV was worse because it was a total pig. Our SRX did 18 MPG hwy on premium. Ouch. Pretty sad, because my old 5.3L 2000 Silverado would get 20 MPG hwy.
