I don't drive that far every day, so my gas bill is pretty low, like $40/month. We have 2 other cars, though. Total for all - my '08 Fit, son's '95 Camry LE, and hubby's '04 4Runner has been about $200/mo. None of us drive far to work or school, and I drive the least because I take their cars on the weekends instead of mine.

Why don't you have people give the miles they drive and the cost?

I spent $450 last month on gas. I think usually I spend $160-$300, it really varies depending on the month.

I spend about $120/month. Going down though, if gas prices stay the way they are now or continue to drop, I should only spend about $100/month or less.

on the fit It's a tank a week, so around $200/month.

I traded in a Mazda tribute for the Fit. what I was paying for gas alone in the Tribute, pays the for the Fit and the gas.

FitS is about 70
G35C is about 140 (premium)
Cooper-S is about 45 (premium)

Pumped gas into the GE8 for the very first time.

$3.39 for 87 at 76. Total = $20. Sweet. That was for about 6 gallons.

I have to switch off with my wife on the Fit and the F150. I get the Fit 3 out of five days. I spend around $350 a month at least.

I put in about 7.5-8 gallons at a time. For my money allowance purposes I give myself a high range of $35 per fillup, although now it's more around $25 dollars.
Filling up once a week costs about $100 a month. But I allot myself a high range of $140.

Here's my mileage / cost logs if you're interested

$120/month for the Fit, gas is still $3.85-$3.95 in the great white north.
$200/month for the Ridgeline.
