I was just figguring out how much it would have cost to pay for gas for my truck if gas was 3.00 a gal all the time. $57,000 for 190k

 

is that at the current MPG ??

or does that compensate for highway, and hauling the little things gassers are capable of

 

my 97 ram came out to $27,500'ish for 93,000 miles at $3.00/gal

the99 durango came out to $18,750'ish for 91,000 miles at $3.00/gal

the99 3.8L grand prix i just traded in came out at $13,800 for 115,000 miles at $3.00/gal

and for old time's sake...the 94 ford probe i had when i was 16, came out at $11,700 for 130,000 miles at $3.00/gal....but when i owned it, gas was $0.94 to $1.25/gal

 

yea thats figguring 10mpg, because I mostly do city driving.


dang olsen, 3 of yourvehicles combined is 1k more than my truck! LOL

 

Ahahaha, this is the funniest thread ever. Lets see, the previous owner of my truck lived in Chicago and got 165k on the motor and tranny, figure 70% hwy at 13mpg and 7.5mpg city @ $3/gal = $26653.84 + $19,800 = $46,453.84 + Cost oforiginal vehicle = ~$26,000 which is a total of $72,453.84 running total for previous owner on this truck w/o all maintenance and repair bills. Now I got this vehicle for $6,800 and put on 3400 miles in one year at 48% hwy = $376.61 + $707.2 = $1,083.81 for me so far not including the 4wd's 4mpg crap. = [&o]

 

i dont even wanna think about mine.

 

Im gonna have to agree with g0tmudd

 

With gas @$1.14per liter X 4.54 liters for a Canadian(imperial) gallon= $5.17 per gallon

For the USA guys and gals $1.14 per liter X 3.87 liters for a U.S. gallon = $4.41 per gallon

this is with the CDN/USA dollar at par, which they are almost at now

have fun [sm=pcwhack.gif]

 

yeh, me too. kinda like those fun facts like how much you spend on your kid until he or she is on their own. but you can't sell the kid.

my saving grace is my truck is for short hauls and not a daily driver.
