Lol, I was just saying, he sounded like he thought driving 200 miles every few weeks was special, lol. Lets say he does it 24 times, that 4800 mile, I do mine 7 time, that 7700 miles, about 3000 miles more, or about 10 fill ups more for me.

but he said he does it 3 times per month. you said 6 - 7 times... math time

3 x 200 = 600 x 12 = 7200 miles.

6 (7) x 1100 = 6600 - 7700 miles.

And no this is not magic, just something I learned in elementary school.

I do about that every other week for work, live about 20-25 miles away, luckily I am carpooling so I only have to drive every other week now.

Trust me, I know math, Calculus 1-3, Linear Algebra, Differential Equations and Statistics are all on my transcript.

If I needed premium I would die, lol. Worst I have seen for for premium here is $4.55/gal in the Upper Peninsula, down where I live its about $4.25/gal for premium, but obviously will be going up with todays oil trading.

It cost around 80 bucks to fill my car with premium. It costs about 72 or 74 to fill it with regular. Not really a big difference in the overall scheme of things. I'll skip Mcdonalds once a week and let my car be happy. Which brings me to the big picture:

What have you cut back on to make up for the difference?

I used to buy old school car audio when ever I could. Or even new school stuff if it was a great deal. Even if I just put it in my closet. Now I have to justify my purchases with "Will I ever use this?"

I don't mind slow drivers...as long as they aren't in the fvcking fast lane doing the speed limit. There are three other lanes for you to do the speed limit in. I think I have road rage too often //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif
