10K miles a year average. Divide by 30 mpg. Multiply by price per gal.

Wow, is 30 mpg the average? 😬 Because I only get 15.
If so, that'd put the average at 111 gallons for 4 months
A lot of people these days have smaller cars and hybrids. Hard to know for sure though. Count the cars on a highway near you to get the best estimate
Damn, what are you driving that averages 15? I averaged 25-30 with my 1996 Sable
'96 Legacy with an EJ20T swap. To be fair, it is frequently is towing a trailer for picking up a cubic yard of compost, mulch, lumber, etc. Plus I think there's a small leak in the fuel line somewhere that lets fuel slowly evaporate.
I'm going to put some effort into fixing some of these things now. Hasn't been a priority, but a mate who is good with cars is out of work, so I'm going to hire him to fix it up. The world is brutal. We all gotta support each other. #community
Ah yea, hauling will do it. My car was a commuter and 90% of the ride was on a highway carrying one person.
