How would you save gas?

Which vehicle would you look gay in saving gas?

**86 IROC-Z** · 07-31-2007, 08:36 AM

My third gen. Using gas in only 5 cylinders is better than 8, right?

**OnEbAdReDSS** · 07-31-2007, 08:43 AM

i would buy a bike if i worked about 3 miles away from work... but considering i work about 30 miles away... i just drive my camaro

**02ultraZ** · 07-31-2007, 08:45 AM

If i lived 3 miles from work i would drive a huge mid 80's chevy 4x4 cuz i wouldn't be worried about gas!

**ice97ta** · 07-31-2007, 08:52 AM

i do all freeway driving to work, so i get good gas miliage. so not to worried

Here is the deal, if someone was giving away the cars on the list and they told me I could have one I'd pick the honda or toyota.

The possibilities of showing how sensitive I am to the ladies by "doing my part to save the world" and explaining to them that guys with big trucks and fast cars are compensating for small dicks would be enough to make up for driving a crappy little car.

At least your catching the drift of the poll a little more. I have my maro and my jeep, but i wouldn't mind getting an econobox for when gas prices go to $8 a gallon. Basically i wanted to know which one was best. I don't know if i would go with the hybrids though.

Definately the Metro. If I'm just looking for a daily driver and still owned my car, the metro would be sweet. That is actually what I am looking for.

either the prius or insight..i dunno-i'm a sucker for hype.

**jperkins812** · 07-31-2007, 10:11 AM

I live about 5 miles from work, but I have my bike to ride most of the time. My 07 650r Ninja gets about 50mpg no matter how I treat it.

as much as i hate them i had to say the xB because it has good interior space but more importantly because it's not a hybrid. people haven't though what happens to these big ass batteries 10 or 15 years down the road when they have to be replaced and how much they will cost to get new ones put in but more importantly to dispose of those batteries.

Yea i bet the dealer will swap & dispose but charge you out the ass for all of it. As the batteries lose power the gas motor takes more of the load. Thus making shittier gas mileage. my G-ma got one and the MPG went down 5 the first two years.

i drive a 5 speed reg. cab 2wd short bed toyota tacoma 150+ miles everyday and i average 27 mpg. I'll stick with that before driving any of those but if i HAD to it would be the Prius (on the list) but prob. the Yaris (not on the list)

**02ultraZ** · 07-31-2007, 11:31 AM

I had a yota pickup 4x4 and a 4runner they weren't too bad on gas. And yea i didn't even think of the yaris, although they look like retarted tucans.

**02ultraZ** · 07-31-2007, 12:38 PM

i can't beleive the chevette isn't winning!

**SexOnWheels** · 07-31-2007, 12:51 PM

I cannot believe smart car was not an option.

We have over ten in my town now and more are on the way.

**67CamaroRSSS** · 07-31-2007, 01:02 PM

I intend to use as much gas as I can with the few years remaining to me.

Your damn right, that's why i bought an f-body instead of restoring a first gen. Need to burn the gas while it's still available.

**02ultraZ** · 07-31-2007, 01:04 PM

Def should have included the smart car...

**JonB** · 07-31-2007, 01:22 PM

I voted kia sophia only because I was forced to drive one for 2 months recnetly. I'm not going to lie it was nice getting 30mpg but the car was still a total piece of crap. Honestly I would't drive any of them unless I was forced like I was. For good gas milage I would go with a motorcycle which will be my vehicle of choice in about 6 months when my car is payed off.
