Fill 'Er Up!
Just gassed up for $2.89/ gal. Cost me $21 to fill up my Fit. That is all. :thumbups:

Nice! At the other end of the spectrum, it costs me a Benjamin and then some to fill up my F-250 Powerstroke… which is why I have a Fit as a DD! (c:

That's good! We've been accruing enough Kroger fuel points to get $1.00 off per gallon for the last several fill-ups. Of course, the SuperDuty truck has priority using those with a typical fill-up of 35 gallons (max allowed discounted) of diesel. Back when diesel got up to $4.59/gallon, we had a $160 fill-up. The Fit has sure changed that. Our average price per gallon has been $1.89 with an average fill-up of $16.96. :D

I have a lifted F150 FX4 so I know the other end of the spectrum. This little car blows my mind.

I've been driving a truck for 12 years so it's just "muscle memory" to give the attendant $50 just to see the fuel guage register something .... that's a habit I enjoy breaking with my new GK (go-kart)!!! |

Of course, when I was a kid with a lawn mowing business, I seem to recall $.32 per gallon. |

Seems like this Fit is a favorite of those of us who have had the time to accumulate wisdom!
I remember $.23/gallon in the early 1970s when I got my license. |
I can remember the huge outcry in the eighties when the price went over one dollar a gallon. There was a big spike in prices when the Iran-Iraq War broke out.

How many of us can remember the "even/odd" rules for filling up your car? That would have been in the early 70's, following some oil embargo initiated by our friends in the Middle East. I was in the Navy at the time, and was a duty driver, so I was able to overcome that problem (I just used the Navy's car for all my errands).
