regarding the post about getting a 1000 dollar honda or toyota as a daily driver.
if MASS didn't charge a retarded amount of money to get a car on the road and make us go through hoops to do it, i might.. but between having to insure it, and registration, tax, license, etc, and having to go to the damn RMV... F it
plus looking like a jackass in a toyota sucks my wanker... my buddy is driving a crapbox CRX or some crap and he looks like a retard. Has a Titan at home that he never drives..
what's the F-ing point? just drive your jeep that you bought and shut the F up. if you cant afford the gas, walk.

If I drove my Jeep on a normal basis, I'd be going through 5 gallons of fuel PER day. At $3 a gallon, I'm spending $15 to drive to drive to work? Twice a week, I would use about 8 gallons, now I'm up to $24 a day in fuel. So, $15+15+15+24+24= $93 in gas per week, and that is not including weekends! That's absolutely insane, in my opinion of course. Anything I can do to decrease my fuel usage, is being done. My beater Taurus gets 22mpg. I can deal with that.

I'm getting close to picking on a POS commuter myself. Late 90's Civic gets ~30-35 mpg compared to the 15 mpg for the Jeep. Civic+tax+title+minimum insurance =$2300. I drive 250 miles/week 50 weeks a year. Difference in gas alone pays for the second vehicle in 1.5 years. And at the end of the 2nd year you've saved enough for a set of dedicated trail tires. Downside is your driving a mobile RTI ramp every day for 2 years.

obviously everyone wants to increase their MPG... just wish there was a way to do it... but honestly, i dont think there really is except buying a different car, at least not noticeably
