Sad that I might have to get rid of number one pretty soon for something a little more gas-friendly :sad:

I used to have a F-150 too. Just like you, the price of gas was killing me so I traded it in for a Focus. Now that is a fancy, stylish touring sedan there! The good news is it gets 40 mpg and since I commute 120 miles to work, that is good. Granted, I look like a circus bear driving a clown car.

Blue Jeep Wrangler.

I've got a '97 Ford Explorer. I like it. 4x4 is nice to have when camping and the like.

I'm starting to look for something more economical for all the highway driving I'm doing. Really thinking about a VW TDI.

Same. That, and there's an Audi I've got my eye on as well.

Audi? I wish you the best of luck if its out of warranty lol.

You ever go up to Hidden Falls with the Jeep?

My daily driver is a 2006.5 Jetta TDi and I generally get upper 40s out of it. Right around 10 cents per gallon to drive in NY. My other ride is a 2006 F250 CC LB diesel. I'd rather drive the F250 any day, but the mileage is a great motivator to drive the Jetta instead.

What is this mileage thing people speak of? Doesn't everyone's employer pay for their gas? :rofl:

Used to be my old 1994 Toyota 4X4 Pick Up.
5 speed, 4 cylinder extra cab, short bed

Bought it new with less than 7 miles on the odometer....had it 18 years and it died with 238,000 on it.

Now, I have my wife's old Pontiac Grand Am....while she got the new Town and Country

You sure it isn't 2gpm (gallons per mile)?

10 cents per gallon or 10 cents per mile?

Per mile! Good catch!

Most days I drive an 08 Town and Country.. It has an in-floor storage compartment that I really dig for my gear. It's easy to access, but completely out of the way, and *fairly* secure for the O2 tank.. I even have room for a couple orange Port-a-cones (which have really come in handy)..

There's room in there for the AED I'll get, but our little rural FR/EMR club need to hold a couple more meat raffles first.. Hopefully in April I'll take delivery of it..
