Well sense we all have our own little stories here. I got one...
I bought a 96 Geo Metro (laugh all you want) 4banger, not the 3, and i get about 45-50mpg all day, everyday. The thing is a freakin CHAMP with 230,000 miles on it!
Now some numbers for ya. It cost me about $40 a fill up with a 10gallon tank.
Now i'll go about 480miles to a tank and I drive 220 miles a week back and forth to work. so i get gas about every payday.
So if you wanna do the math
Geo is $80 a month on gas
Stang would be about.... $160 a month or so...
And saving $80 bucks a month for the last (lets just say one year) $960! Just in freakin gas!!!!
So to all you people who pay all this money for gas, i think its time to start really thinking about getting different transportation. And thats only my .02
I know drivin the stang is really nice to have some power, and look good doing it, but we have come to a point in our age that money is going to be harder to come by if we have to sell eveything we have to pay for gas.
End rant
