Does Tea Weaken Enamel

Comparo self

I just stumble on a site car comparo (probably well known to aficionados). It is an American site, so prices are in USD and consolidated, to MPG (miles per gallon) and not L/100km, but it can be a good idea of what we want according to its criteria. And it is more visual and intuitive than the good old Excel spreadsheet:) The database of this site includes the 707 models of the U.S. market. The Canadian market has a number of models and less.

Examples:
For our first car, an SUV (a CUV, ren reality, but does not play on words ...), choosing our criteria of price, age, consumption, engine and wheels, it automatically reduces the comparison of 184 vehicles a. .. 9.
We take this opportunity to further reduce consumption, which eliminates the (slightly) more intensive Ford Mazda, Mitsubishi and Suzuki, and it happens automatically at a top 4. And our final choice is indeed in the top 4.


Second example, our second car with our criteria (including price and low consumption), we arrive at a shortlist of 7 vehicles (against 123 at the base in this range of vehicles).

remains to be a top 4 by releasing the Chevy Cobalt (does not tailgate), Scion (Toyota brand's exotic, not available in Canada) and Toyo (chest riquiqui), and pof, we arrive at a shortlist of 4, or is, once again, our final choice.


Obviously, these criteria are objective, and furthermore, some filters could be interesting, are not used (dimensions, for example, or consolidated real). However, in the end it remains an interesting tool.

For consolidated real and pollution, I would strongly advise the American government site FuelEconomy.gov .
