DogCars.com, the only automotive resource for dog-lovers, picks its “Top 5 at 25″ — five vehicles that offer a fuel-efficiency rating of around 25 mpg and have a base price less than $25,000. All the chosen vehicles are perfect for dog-lovers on a budget. All the picks have been “vetted” by Dr. Marty Becker, popular veterinarian for ABC-TV’s “Good Morning America” and pet-care columnist for Universal Press Syndicate.

Bonners Ferry, ID (PRWEB) August 28, 2008 — Gas prices got you howling at the moon? DogCars.com, the only auto resource just for dog-lovers, may have the answer with its list of the top five DogCars with good fuel efficiency (25 mpg or better) and a relatively low price tag (under $25,000).

It’s called the DogCars.com “Top 5 at 25.”

The list, which actually includes six DogCars because of a tie, looks at the factors that make a vehicle a champion when it comes to moving our furry family members. A DogCars.com review team led by best-selling author Dr. Marty Becker, ABC-TV’s “Good Morning America” veterinarian and the Universal Press Syndicate pet-care columnist, put together the list after considering all the 2008 model year vehicles that fit the criteria.

“Many dog-loving families are facing the financial reality of having to choose between taking their pets with them on the road, or leaving them home to take a smaller, cheaper vehicle,” said Dr. Becker. “We want no dogs left behind, so we did the research and came up the best vehicles for the job.”

The DogCars “Top 5 at 25″ picks have:

• Fold-flat seats.
• Lots of usable cargo space, relative to the size of the vehicle.
• Wide, square hatchbacks, with as little rear slope as possible, to maximize cargo space and make loading dogs easier.
• Door/window locks, so the dog can’t accidentally unlock a door or roll down a window.
• All-wheel or four-wheel-drive a bonus, since many dog-lovers also love outdoor activities.

The “Top 5 at 25″ list (with alternate selections) includes:

• Subaru Forester (20/26 mpg, $19,995); alternate: Suzuki Forenza and Volkswagen Passat wagons.
• Pontiac Vibe (26/33 mpg; $15,895) and the Honda Fit (28/34 mpg, $13,950); alternate: Toyota Matrix and Kia Rondo.
• Scion xB (22/28 mpg; $15,650): alternate: Honda Element.
• Saturn Vue crossover (19/26 mpg, $22,150); alternate: Saturn Vue hybrid.
• Dodge Grand Caravan (17/24 mpg; $23,290); alternate: Mazda 5 crossover.
