well I been doing it since gas was .87 cents a gallon, maybe a bit cheaper, however I have always had a "muscle car" to drive when I wanted to, & the economy car for daily driving. yes 35+ years of driving & keeping both.

my wife has a 2012 Prius C, I am pissed off at Toyota, the newer ones get 5mpg worse? same as regular Prius when we bought ours, & now regular models are still 5mpg worse than were 6 years ago. I bought ours new when first came out, a 2012 model, have managed 58-63 mpg on trips, but normally 49-53 just daily driving.

anyway I have a Roush truck, my "muscle car" that I have been forced to drive daily recently as my economy car finally messed up, a 97 Honda Accord, but was getting close to 400K miles, I just bought a low mileage 2009 Chevrolet AVEO, but wont be able to go get it until next week, but reading on them is how I saw this page.
