I'm back with some more updates. I survived another tax season, oh and I also got married!

Onto the important stuff

Since gas prices have been so low lately, I've been crunching the numbers to see if buying the Geo is still a worthy investment.

Actual $ spent on gas with Geo (95% use) and Sti (5% use) = $513

Theoretical $ money I would have spent if I kept driving the Sti (based on the miles i've put on the Geo, then divide by Sti mpg, times the average price of premium gas) =$834

Total savings $321

I've had the Geo for 4 months, so it's averaging about $80/month in savings. However, the Geo desperately needs a new clutch, so that will eat into the savings.

I'll try to get some more eco-mods onto the Geo soon!
