I tried to splain "fuel cost" to my 2 college educated enviromentalist kid's who were all over me about my old F-150 and 15 mpg on a good day. Most of my mileage is my 18 mile round trip to work an back. I'm a patient man with simple needs so I keep a sticky note pad handy an make a list of things I need in town an make the stops to get them during my commute to an from work or when I absolutely need to be in town. MPG pretty much falls out of the figuring when you put a calculator to all the other expenses related to a new "fuel efficent vehicle" that I don't have with the old Ford. What's really amazing is the respect that rusty old Ford gets from the "fuel efficent" bunch and the shiny SUV bunch. Geez!! planning and limiting the amount of driving you do is quite a concept! I've seen the kids and their mother make as many as a half dozen trips to town in a day. You suppose a car getting 30 mpg and making 6 trips to town is anymore cost effective than a truck getting 15 mpg making 1 trip?
