30 miles oneway 5 days a week makes ~400 miles a week
crappy Costco 93 with 10% alcohol is $3.10 here.

last week I filled up with costco 87 just to give it a try.
won't ever do this again, power was gone I mean totally gone.
I limited boost at 10psi and was shifting at 2k, it's ok to commute but what's the point...

 

I drive 30k miles a year, it definetly adds up.

I ended up buying an 04' 2500HD diesel that I love and was hoping that would cure the problem of expensive gas..

Now it has 800ftlbs of torque and I drive the hell out of it everywhere I go

 

3.10 ish here in ak... 90 octane.... 9-0... you'd think we'd have the best gas of all up here.

 

its killing me 3.11 for 91, 3.19 for 93, i drive 25k+ per year at least, this is rediculous, now they are going to add the 10% thing here soon also

 

Wouldn't be nice if there was a 300hp electric Evo or 300hp electric anything. I would drive by gas stations and pop major chubb at the shear satisfaction of not being *** raped by oil prices.

 

i bought a $550.00 honda crx.

 

If you want a beater get a metro or subaru justy they can both be had for cheap and come with 3 cyl might suck to drive but in the long run will save you more cash for mods on the EVO. I have a justy it has 4WD with 1.2l and it works pretty good I have hit 37MPG I need to rebuild the carb after that I expect 40-45 MPG.

 

I've started driving my Miata daily... It gets 27~28 mpg when I flog it. On the road it gets over 30 mpg. Of course, a 9 psi supercharger is going in it tomorrow

 

I just don't look at the pump when I fill up


..and I've also started commuting to work with one of those Rideshare (Easystreet) van pool things. $165/month for the van vs. $500/month for gas + Newport bridge tolkens. I commute 120 miles round trip per day.

Last year I drove 47,000 miles and spent around $7000 on gas.

This year I drove the Evo 4 months (before the engine blew) and put on 15,000 miles.

 

i drive round triip 50 miles a day for work. paying $3.40 or so for Pissed out Cali gas. Im getting 240-250 a tank if im out of boost for the whole tank, and making sure i have my windows rolled up on the freeway to cut down on drag. oh yea... i never go over 70.

Kinda sucked at first, because i didnt wanna drive my toy everyday. But i got the car to enjoy and drive. Everything fun costs money, but its worth it. its only been lately that I've been using the R1 more than usual....

But that might be because my TC is at Shep.

 

commute 500 miles a week, rotating between my GTI and EVO, so each car get 1K miles per month! 18mpg for the EVO and 26mpg for the GTI.

 

Yea man, i wanted to pick up a lil' GTI action too. My woman is lookin at an RDX now... so, if she decides to get it, EVO's goin in the Garage for a little bit, im Im gonna pimp the 5 series. As of right now, she drives that... but only 6 miles a day.

 

I got a new job and its 53 miles round trip everyday! Gas here is about 3.05 average for 93oct, it has been going down over the last 2 weeks

 

I drive around 35 miles one way and just got 290 off of 12.2 gallons. Comes out to around 23.7 miles a gallon. I did play with it a little bit, so i'm sure I could probably squeeze out 25mpg if I tried. I will say thi, I just dropped in some iridium plugs and noticed a big difference in the mpg's. I was only getting around 260-270 a tank, now i'm closer to 300 a tank.

 

i drive about 30 miles one way. but i get around 26-28 mpg, which i feel to be pretty good gas mileage so i dont complain.
