I did the math a few years ago, but gas would have to go up to about $5 a gallon to break even on the gas saving verse the extra insurance of buying a beater econobox compared to the Camaro. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/nutkick.gif) Plus I have to maintain the econobox, no thanks. I drive 17 miles to work everyday, if that was 50 miles then it might matter.
