    Maz, I only ever half fill mine, but I'm TOTALLY impressed by the fuel economy. I had a VT Commodore before and that chews it compared to the bigger, roomier Kia!

    Fuel Economy is pretty good in Carnivals, unless you really fill it will people or luggage, or go up and down hills.

    They dont have a lot of power when full, or for going up hills, and in these times it chews the fuel and can drive a bit sluggish. For general driving, its pretty good. A 2003 model shouldn't have all the mechanical problems either!!!

    Congrats on your new car, I hope you love it!!!
