Your Cars

[Janice]

Ok, what kind of cars do you have? Any gas hogs...

We just have one car now, a Toyota... we love it, great on gas.

[O Town]

Gas hog is an understatement, we have a Dodge Ram Van with the biggest motor they make.
Hubby filled it up the other day and it took $97.00.

Thankfully I don't drive too far and that should last me a week and half to 2 weeks.

Yikes......................

1)1995 Mitsubishi Galant S 2.4L auto: 400 miles per tank
2)1990 Plymouth Accalim 3.0L(mitsubishi) auto: about 330 per tank

I fill-up every 3 weeks in my Galant: The Acclaim is my back-up car

[MississippiHurricane]

lol you have the 5.9L:the same engine used in the older Ram trucks. Have fun with gas!:)

We have a 2005 Chrysler 300 which isn't too bad. About $40 to fill up and it lasts me 2 weeks. BUT, my husbands 2003 cargo van that he uses for his business, takes between $70 and $90 to fill up and that is at least once a week. We do have one other car a 1990 Camaro that normally would cost about $60 to fill up but it isn't running right now. Which in a way is a good thing

We have a friend that has a 2004 Dodge Ram Pickup Dually (sp?), he puts about 200 miles a day on that truck. He averages $500.00 a week on gas.

If I don't buy myself a little car this winter, I think I will buy a golf cart, gas, that holds 4. We are close to the beach and mall. I am leaning for the golf cart. They are popular here and good on gas. When we have company, we would use it daily.

[gtalum]

I drive a 2006 Toyota RAV4 V6 Limited and my wife drives a 2005 VW Passat TDI.

[vbhoutex]

2005 Kia Spectra-great mileage and only drivben about 10 miles a day max.
2002 Misubishi Montero SUV-$40 once a week.

[Janice]

I am just wondering what people will do if gas goes to $5 a gallon.

John always stops on the way home from work to pick up groceries. We try to keep our outings down.

[Andy_L]

winter car is just a four wheel banger to get me to work....but as soon as roads are dry and clean I'm back on my motorcycle till December about 50mpg (thank god, when gas is heading towards $4 a gallon)

[dean]

2000 Ford Focus. about 25 miles a gallon. had a 1990 Toyota Carolla and that got about 35-40 mpg, but that was the only nice this about the car.

[alicia-w]

traded in the lexus for a brand-spanking new Subaru Forester before we left Florida. The better half has a Toyota Tacoma.

[Yankeegirl]

I drive a 2003 4runner that does ok on gas... i have to say that i am happy with the milage i get with it... its a v8 and i get about 21 mpg in the city... havent taken it on a trip yet, dont know how the highway mileage is yet...

My hubby drives a 2000 VW Jetta... Does awsome on gas!!!

[Janice]

Yes, we love the fact that our car is small and great on gas. We had a new Cadillac, but living on a small island, we find no need to get a bigger car or a more expensive one. It would be different if we drove from state to state and actually traveled. Our car is basically just to get John to work and shopping.

[flightwxman]

05 Subaru Legacy GT (Turbo)...about 23 mpg (average of city/highway)

[HollynLA]

We have a monster gas guzzler, an '06 Ford F-350 Super Duty Crew Cab 4x4 (otherwise known as a 1 ton, dually)
Dh uses this as a work truck (welder) so it's kinda a necessity but sucks diesel pretty bad

I drive an 05 Chevy Impala that gets 26 miles per gallon which is great for being a larger comfortable car.

[LSU2001]

2006 Dodge 2500 with Cummins Diesel engine.

20.2 mpg in town
22+ on highway

$80.00 to fillup and about 550-600 miles per tank.

Diesel is the way to go if you have to pull anything.

PS. If I would get off my butt I could make bio-diesel for about 60-70 cents per gallon using waste veg. oil

My wife drives a chrysler 300c with a 5.7 hemi. She gets about 19-20 on hwy but about 16 in town.
