I dont know if i should buy something that gets good gas mileage or save for stuff for the 7 because i know gas prices are just gonna keep going up and it damn near $2 a gallon now. im going to college and am thinking keep the seven at one of the parents houses(divorcing)for a year or so until the prices go down. my current daily driver is dying and i promised i would sell it back to the person i bought it to when i went to college. it get **** gas mileage anyway (86 cougar 5.0 swap) but it gets me around. lets hear some opinions.

get a scooter. better yet, get a used, older yet reliable scooter. cheap, and you can spend like $2 a week on gas.

93 sentra SE-R

got about 30mpg, 140hp, super fun and reliable.



or like myself you could steal your parents 93 ford escort wagon, LX, 1.9 litre, 119hp, 5spd, AC, pimpin maroon interior, and an unbelievable 43mpg on the highway, about 35 around town

The thing about rising gas prices is...



I dont understand why people buy a new car just because it gets better gas mileage.



DRRRR with the money you spent on the new car you could easily pay for a whole hell of alot of gas!!!
