I had a Dodge Neon It got around 25 MPG
My other previous car was a Suzuki Esteem, that thing got about 32.
Its really not worth it downgrading for a few mpg better. Unless you do a lot of side street/stop and go driving. Thats where the Bonneville suffers compared to small cars.

Remove heavy items that you don’t need from your vehicle. Each additional 125 pounds of weight can reduce fuel economy by approximately 0.3 mpg.

I was looking to drop about 500 lbs in my daily driver, so I traded it in on a Maxima, LOL
Seriosely gas prices suck but they will level out to the mid 2 dollar range in a month or so, just be patient
