Day 11: Money, money, money
Everytime I gas up my car I write down the mileage, gas price and gallons. I never do anything with this information. I figure it's something to do while I wait for the tank to fill. I decided it's time to actually use this data and see what's there!
I have leased my 2003 Subaru WRX since February 2003. Since then I have gassed up 103 times for a total of 1,341 gallons of gas costing me $2,952 which took me 29,000 miles.
Saving all the mathophobes the dirty numbers, counting insurance, lease payments and gas my car has cost me $17,505, a whopping 60 cents per mile! Bikes, on average, run about 5 cents a mile.
Just something I think about while riding...
Daily mileage: 32 (Cost me $1.60!)
Running total: 230

am I missing something? How is May 10th Day 10, and May 13th day 11? Damn Cheater! :)
Maybe you should move to Ohio and drive less. Your car payment and insurance would be lower, and your gas price as well... and you can actually buy a home that is 1.7 miles from work for a reasonable sum, saving you further cash since you could WALK to work... which unless you factor in some sort of knee replacement surgery is FREE!
