A lady at work commutes 120miles round-trip to her country dwelling. She replaced her old truck with a new Hummer H3
in which she says she averages 13mpg. That's 9.2gal per day, at $3/gal, it's close to $28/day, $138/wk, $553/mo
Just to get to work, not counting running errands etc.
Her mortgage is $800/mo
we're almost there for some people...
