I may just drive the Lancer a bit more as it gets over 30mpg. But my god is it boring.
I got to do the 'two credit card transactions because I hit the anti-fraud limit before fill up' shenanigans a few weekends ago when I let my truck get low. I have *never* done that in a gas powered vehicle before. Diesel, yes.

I can't even imagine how bad the problem with drive-offs would be now if every station hadn't went to pre-pay/pay-at-the-pump.

I haven't been to the station in a week or so, and have no idea how bad it is right now. Last time I went it was $3.55 for 87. I just retired, and don't really drive much, especially in the winter, and my wife's business is only 3 miles from our home. I have a 2LT RS 3.6, and drive pretty conservatively, so the mileage is actually very good.

No limit here. Don't buy a Camaro as your daily driver if you have a big commute.

Went to cars and coffee this morning and noticed it was $3.69 at 9:30am.
Passed by again at 11:45am and it was $3.89 which seems completely rational.
