It's called living with your mistakes (just kidding)

We went from a SUV to a 9-5 wagon. Wanted to get completely away from the SUV thing and 15-20 mpg.
My wife had been using my 9K while her SUV was getting some work done and she said how much she liked driving the Saab. Being due for a car, we went looking and went with the 9-5. On the way home from the dealer she looked at the SID showing mileage and saw 33 mpg and was even happier. 24 local, 32-33 highway.
I like the small SUVs like the BMW X3 and the RDX for their utility, but they still get lousy mileage, so IMHO, they only seem like a good deal to someone coming out of a full size SUV who will think 17 and 22 is a big change.
