No, what I really care about is, "can I make it to the next fuel stop with what I have in the tank." Which is not a problem in most of Europe, but is very much a problem in large parts of the USA.
So, what you really want is range, not MPG? If that's the case, then you'd be indifferent between a car with the identical performance specs that gets 20MPG and has a 20 gallon tank, and one that gets 40MPG and has a 10 gallon tank. 400 mile range in both cases.
