Well, have you spotted your mistake?

Seriously what is the fricking logic here? "Derp well gas is cheap so I might as well use more of it."

Sorry you never learned shite about actually being fiscally conservative.


What are you talking about, are you an idiot? No i haven't just decided to use more gas because it was cheaper.

I have a full size truck that sucks gas so i made the decision when gas prices were high to purchase a smaller vehicle that would off set the cost of gas while saving miles on my truck. Once gas went down the cost difference wasn't worth maintaining and paying insurance on 2 vehicles. Now that gas is up the savings would offset the cost of another cheap car. It is also about making my truck last longer by not putting 20,000 miles a year just to work and back.


And before you come back with why didn't you get rid of the truck. I'm not some pussy dandy who just has a pretty truck. My family has a farm that we all use our trucks to operate.

As far a being fiscally conservative, every little car i've driven to save gas money, wear and tear on my truck has been sold for what i paid or more. I've basically driven them for free other then $15 a month for insurance.

It was never worth it. You should have sold the full size truck.
