Just wondering how much some individuals have to cope with.


Your honest input is greatly appreciated.

I've been in a good mood lately and I'd rather not ruin that by figuring out how much I'm spending per month.

why does it matter anyways? its gonna be higher next month anyways

HAHA I know what you mean. Does it really matter if you can afford it?

I, personally think I spend too much on gas partially because of my driving habits. This may be associated with poor planning and general inefficiency in combining errands.

But i'd like to know where I stand amongst other subaru owners in Hawaii.

hah!

ya its probably close to 200 bills for me a month. but i look at it this way, not only is my car my transportation but also one of my greatest sources of enjoyment and lets be honest 22-25 mpg is not that bad and its probably only 30 bucks more a month to drive than a friggin prius or something gay like that. i dont know about you but i'll pay an extra 30 bucks a month for sex on wheels...

Our total household petrol bill is a little over $300, but that depends on which of our cars gets driven more often.

If it's the Miata, then the bill can go down by $50-$70, but if it's the Ridgeline, then the bill can go up by that amount.
