I drive a '97 GMC ext. cab 2wd (250,000 miles) & a 2001 Chevy Tahoe (200,000 miles). I'm thinking about getting something small, maybe a Chevy Cobalt. I drive about 1200 miles a week and $35 a day in gas is getting to be depressing. :frown:

Mafsu, you need an airplane for the kind of mileage you are logging. Do you do you own maintainance too?
When I was working in Philadelphia I was driving 700+ miles per week. Bummer when you need new tires and the old ones are still on the credit card.

Yeah, I do my own maintenance. Maybe not a plane, but a helicopter would be nice.

I have a friend in the Auto Wholesale business that Helicopters from Car lot to Car lot. You could use one to go from Richmond to DC! That would be awsome except for the 60 grand blade replacement for every 80 hours of flight time!
I used to use a Turbo Beetle now I'm in a Golf R32 soon to be in a Miata.

You got rid of the beetle? That's a shame, that was a sweet ride.

Very cute car. The money on gas you save should easily pay the note!
I have a crew cab pickup and a v6 suv. We are doing most work out of the suv to save a few bucks on gas. Every little bit helps.
