I remember 14 cents a gallon...when I was a kid in South Carolina.



The X gets about 20 mpg, give or take, depending upon my right foot/traffic, etc.

My Wife's Mini Cooper gets about 36 mpg on her daily slog....but she needs premium.

So - if I decide to give up a hobby I love, I can save money on gas, and mods, etc...if I want to wheel though...by the time you factor in reliability, mileage, carrying capacity, etc...I'd need another X, or give something up.
