:shake: :screwy:

That was 2008 & the calculations are approximate as my credit card statements are no longer available.

I am hoping that 2010 will be a much better year.... as I am planning on finally getting my TDI running as a daily driver :)


Crazy!

that's about 1 full tank per week. Yeh that sounds about right.

That's rougly 2400 euro's, which will get you about 1800 liters of gasoline here... That will get you an average of 18-20k kilometers which in turn is about 12-12,5k miles...

I bet you drove more for that amount of money right (presuming your in the US)

3500 dollar got you (average 2,50 per gallon) 1400 gallon's... what is average?

10mpg -> 14k miles
15mpg -> 21k miles

Was just wondering how the prices are there related to the prices here!

i think i did underestimate by about $500 USD

I drove all over the place ($1200 in tolls). 10 hour round trips every week to every other week......From Albany NY to Key West Florida & back.... check out a map for that one.... I just KNOW I drove about 2500 - 3500/month.

Bi weekly trip was like this...
Albany NY to NYC to Delaware to Central PA and back..........easily 2000 miles just on that a month.


Car rental MPG was about 14-17 MPG
I get a lot better now in my GTI (but putting on the miles waaaaaaaaaay too fast now).

Its sad because you guys are used to paying out the ass.......

I would fill up 2-3 times a day on some days..... :shake:
