if you are looking for economy then the fiesta diesel will have pep and save you gass, and the focus zetec = good as well, the titanium looks nice, but is probably a ton of $$$$

I have no idea about anything related to fuel consumption. What sort of fuel consumption am I looking for? What is good fuel consumption for this type of car?
