I start crunching the numbers. Avg person will drive 1200 mile per month Cost of gas 2.70
MPG Gal per month Cost Per month 16 75 202 17 71 192 18 67 181 19 63 170 20 60 162 21 57 154 22 55 148 23 52 140 24 50 135 25 48 130 26 46 124 27 44 119 28 43 116 29 41 111 30 40 108
As I drive Now I get 17 MPG if I drive really good, I can push 20 mpg a saving of 40 dollars a month. OR.... I could trade for more mpg say 17 to 30 mpg I would save 84 dollars a month plus higher car payments,plus higher insurance, plus take it in the shorts on trade in. OR.... buy old and pay cash,no payment ,less insurance.. But how much on repairs? old car still sitting there cost me but can't drive it. I guess I will do like everyone else and just complain about the price and hope that it will go down. You end up saving about the same if the price of gas goes up or if you drive more miles a month the ratio of savings per month is about the same money. Get a bike??? maybe
