If you are going to buy a commuter be sure you will actually save money.. Look at it realistically. If you are only going to drive your smaller car during certain months you might have to break up the mileage between the two.

You also have to insure it, fix it, maintain it, etc... It would add up to a LOT of fuel for your truck.


I'm just speaking from experience... It will be almost 2 years before my tracker pays for itself over my Jeep. That is if I drive it every day! I guess my point is... Payoff may be longer than you expect.
