USA Average 15,000 miles a year

Average USA car 20 MPG = 750 gallons a year

$2.50 to $4.00 a gallon = $1.50

$1.50 x 750 gallons =$1125.00 per year

But this might only last from May to September or 40% of the months of the year. So now we are talking $450 a year. If you start now and save $1.89 a day for the remaining 237 day in the year, you should be fine.

Interesting Chart

Unrest in the Middle East always results in higher oil prices.

That really puts it into perspective. A bit more than one month of our morgage and people are complaining. Overhere in Italy (military) we pay close to 6 dollars a gallon.
