[UL_LUZ98]

yeah what do you do

[JJRP57]

"Topped off" the mini truck this moring, 1/2 tank @ $3.37 totalling 48.00 , but as stated above, what do ya do, we will all get used to it. remember back in the day when it was
.80 a gallon? then 1.50 sounded high. then 2.50 was high. and 3.00??? NO WAY!! . If we ever see $3.00 a gallon, which we wont, we would be like holy $h!t This place has gas for ONLY $3.00. everyone would bum rush that place. so whatever it sucks but it is what it is..

I remeber a few years back saying to myself that if premium went over $1.75 a gallon I was going to sell the car...

When I went to BIR yesterday, it was $3.49 to $3.69. On the way home, there was nothing less than $3.59.

Premium 91, non-oxy was $3.79 in Princeton.


The good news is....I get 25+ MPG going to the track.


The bad news is......I get about 4 MPG while going around the track.

Rusty Gatenby from channel 5 was up there doing a little interview / racing deal, so I might be on TV.

Great mileage, it would be great if that was all one had to figure for operating costs.

If you're into saving money...let's look at a couple smart examples...

1. Honda Hybrid Civic (cannot use E85)

Average sale price: $21,000
98 Cobra S/C mileage claim: 40mpg

Test results from Consumer Reports:
The Civic has responsive handling and a steady, compliant ride. Road noise is pronounced. The 1.8-liter engine returned 28 mpg with the automatic and 31 mpg with the manual. The hybrid returned 37 mpg overall.

*Annual fuel cost: @ $3.60 per gal = $1350 (based on 15,000 mi per year 40 mpg not 37)
Monthly Payment financing $21,000 @ 6.76% APR x 60 months = $413.45

2. 2007 Chevrolet Impala LT (E85 compatible)

Average pre-owned cost = $16000

EPA City mileage 18
Hwy 29
Let's use a low figure for a combined average: 23
*Annual fuel cost: $2347.83
Monthly payment financing $16,000 x 60 months @ 6.76 APR = $315.01

Monthly fuel and payment costs:
Honda =
Fuel $112.50 + $413.45 payment = $525.95

Chev Impala=
Fuel $195.65 + payment $315.01 = $510.66

So...you're spending more money per month to feel less pain at the pump?

Also, more money for a compact car with 110 hp vs a full size with 211hp?

Let's take a look at warranties...




Just a couple things to think about.....lol
