V6 vs 4 cylinder gas difference?
Looking for a used car I'm told 4 cylinder will save me the most on gas. Is there a huge difference of gas on a 4 cylinder and a v6.
If possible would like a rough estimate on the difference in cost to fill up a tank.

about a 4-5 mpg difference, if it costs you $40 to fill up a tank on a sentra at $3.40 a gallon for example, it might cost you around $60 to fill up a maxima. (I used the 2002 sentra 1.8L vs the 2002 maxima 3.5L)
i have a vw gti vr6 (ie: 6 cylinder)
i get about 24mpg combined whereas the 4 cylinder models should get ~32 combined
and take a second to review your last line there... filling your tank is going to cost exactly the same, you'll just do it more often with a v6
You'll have to compare each model.
