I drive an 1986 Honda accord. Its paid for, and right now all i can afford. I get 300-310 miles to a tank. Not too shabby for an older car. If i could id get a hybrid, but financially i cant afford to get a new car, period.
I already drive as little as possible. I live 35 miles from where i work (rent is cheaper, dont get me started on the housing/renting market ). That means 70 miles a day round drip, 5 days a week. The US isnt exactly big on mass transportation, so i HAVE to drive.
I don't drive on the weekends, AT ALL. If i do, its to get a bite to eat or a run to the market for grocceries.
