I started keeping a log after getting a used Expedition - in 1.5 months $289 - it is killing me to pay that much. I was driving a Jetta that got 30 MPG. I have to keep thinking that the repair costs to the Jetta would offset the gas savings.
Date Gallons Miles ~ MPG Cost Price Note
01/25/07 18.7 235 12.57 $40.00 $2.14
01/31/07 21.1 265 12.56 $46.00 $2.18 36PSI tires
02/07/07 11.7 156 13.33 $25.00 $2.14 Air Filter
02/12/07 14.0 185 13.21 $30.00 $2.14
02/18/07 14.2 190 13.35 $31.00 $2.18
02/22/07 12.2 195 15.98 $27.00 $2.21 1/2 HW Miles
02/24/07 8.8 120 13.71 $20.00 $2.27
02/28/07 12.7 160 12.60 $30.00 $2.37
03/05/07 16.4 0.00 $40.00 $2.43
I am sure it will be up over $3.00 before we know it. They will blame increased demand with the upcoming summer travel season coming up, Middle East tension, etc.
