The Meanest Vehicles for the Environment in 2006

http://www.greenercars.com/12mean.html

If you look at our meanest vehicle list, while the models may have changed year to year, the general picture has not changed. The list is dominated by large pickups, large SUVS, and a few exotic sports cars. We're not worried about the exotic sports cars because they sell at such low numbers. It is however an issue with large SUVs and pickup trucks: the GMC Yukon, the Hummer H2, the Dodge Ram 1500 Pickup, the Dodge Durango SUV, and the Chevy Suburban SUV. These are all vehicles that have very high volumes and are incredibly inefficient. They burn an awful lot of fuel, and emit high levels of tailpipe emissions.

The meanest vehicle of the year is the Dodge Ram SRT 10. It's a version of the Dodge Ram pickup truck, in which Dodge placed a Viper engine. It's an 8.3-liter, 500 horsepower 10-cylinder engine. The vehicle gets 9 mpg in the city and 12 in the city. You can't expect to be environmentally friendly under those circumstances.
