I was estimating.
$350 for gas at $1.40 a gallon = 250 gallons * 18 MPG = 4500 miles.

Can I ask what you do that requires driving 160+ miles per day (I would kill myself if I had to do that) ?

Search Ebay Motors for a 1997-1999 Geo Metro. You can get one for under $1000. It can get 45 MPG, and you'll never worry if someone dents it in a parking lot. If it breaks down, leave it and buy another.[/b]
I'm paying just over $1.40 usually for gas (I usually use mid-grade because my truck has a tendency to sound like ass if I don't), and getting between 15-16 mpg... I would almost be happy with 18... I'm an apartment locator in Austin... my office is up north, and for some reason most of my leases are on the other side of town... plus I have to show people several different apartments... I love my job, but after a full day in the X my ass hurts!!! And there is no way I could buy a Geo! [LOL] It does sound like a good idea, and probably is, but I need reliability and something I'm not totally embarrassed to drive...
