hum 65miles each way was 5 days a week still am most of the time.
130 a day
650 a week
2817 a month
33800 a year

i went from 20-23 (just going to work) to 26-30mpg
so at 22 mpg i would use 128 gallons a month at 2 bucks a gallon 256 bucks a month
at 28 mpg i wouldd use 100 gallons a month at 2 bucks a gallon 200 bucks a month

so i saved 56 bucks a month on just gas a month at current gas prices $112 at 4 bucks a gallon like last summer.

before when i use to drive my 98 taco , just around i got 17-20 mpg. so i gained alot from here, but saving fuel wasnt the main goal. i wanted to make it 3 days on a tank, which i easly attained, now 4 when it warms up

then i have the oher two cars, i put 20k on the camry since i bought her new in jan of 08 plus the 33k in my truck. then we have the third car was a tc now a new tacoma

now my wife about 156 miles a month.....
6 miles to work
12 round trip
36 miles a week (she works 3 days)
1872 miles a year
