I drove it 10,000 miles in a year, from 284,326 to 294,800 if I paid 500 did maintenance of ~125 and got 20 mpg at an average gas cost of 2.00 a gallon I paid $4.40 a day to drive my car for the last year edit: if you add insurance which was 50 a month bundled (which my dad paid for because it was bundled) it brings it to $6.04 a day, still not bad |
