sorry, but i just can't agree with this bit. it is poor public perception, not poor fuel economy. do people ever critisize the economy of the honda accord? it has wizz bang technology (cylinder deactivation) and yet the falcon is just as economical.

only cheaper to catch a plane if you are travelling alone, and have a means of transport upon arrival. if you have a wife and kids, which many buyers of large family cars do have, then they still offer great value travelling across the country and you have transport when you get to your destination. much cheaper than 4 return air fares + multiple weeks of car rental.
