There's an app called Gas Buddy that I've downloaded since buying the car. You'd be surprised how low (considering) that you can find for premium.

I just moved to DE so gas went up for me. NJ (where I'm from) was a little cheaper because of the refineries in NJ = less cost to get to local pumps = less cost at pump.

The UK is allowed to have very efficient and economical small car diesels. With the exception of the VW Jetta TDI, diesel cars are forbidden in the USA. If you get 50 mpg, $7.50 a gallon is easier to swallow.

Honestly I have no clue how much I pay for gas. I just stop and fill up when ever I am at 1/4 tank. I had to look up my credit card statement just to see what I pay.
The Camaro last filled up with $65 and the ESV last filled up with $125

Very true. Except a lot of people don't buy cars they can afford.

Priceless, just use your mastercard.

Don't you wish you had a V6?
Hell no!

I have got on it a couple times here and there. Fastest speed she has ever seen is 94MPH exactly 1 time. I think the highest next speed has been 82.

That 17.2MPG was achieved during a tank where 75% of the tank was used on a single all highway no traffic trip on cruise at 65MPH. The other quarter used in just normal driving. My wifes Traverse gets better gas mileage with about 1200lbs more weight on the exact same roads i take daily. Sheesh
You did notice he had the cruise set at 60 mph and reset the MPG while he was at 60 right? Next time you are in your car do that and you will get similar results.

it's about 4.05/gallon and I'm averaging +/-15 miles to the gallon according to the computer. I didn't buy the car for mileage, if i was that worried about it i woulda bought a prius. But then i wouldn't have everybody giving me thumbs up or waving at me at just about every red light i pull up to.
