So he commutes 3x a week for 65 mi for a 15 week semester

At 20 mpg and $2.50/gal his fuel cost is about 360 dollars


Not to mention the Metro needs some fixing and at 50 mpg will also consume about 120 dollars of gas.

if the time horizon is only one semester it looks marginal.

Probably better to go after the van with cardboard aeromods and adjust the driving nut somewhat.
