[QUOTE="maintenanceguy, post: 486673, member: 24227"] IRS says it costs 56 cents per mile to operate a vehicle including gas, repairs, initial purchase, etc. They haven't updated that figure in years and with gas and car prices being what they are now, I bet it's close to 75 cents per mile. If 75 cents is pretty close to reality, you can drive almost 7 miles to save $5 and break even. Driving any further costs money. I never shop around. I can't save 30 cents a gallon around here - maybe 5 or 6 cents difference between gas stations. Not worth it for 5 or 6 cents. [/QUOTE]
