Quick question, does the new ActiveModel API assume a relational database? I'm really hoping for a Rails compliant CouchRest implementation.

That was one of the first things that jumped out at me when I took the average of all makes and models by year. I was planning on writing a post about just that, but the link you provided to Edmunds explains it better than I could. Also, great information about how the car companies can model their fuel efficiency during the design phase.

I'd love it if you sent your data along, I'll write a post about it. I'm also planning on adding mileage tracking to the site for comparison to the EPA data. Some initial data would be great for bootstrapping.
