I chose to get something $***ty and drive that until graduation. A car is a hardcore responsibilty...especially if its new.

Payment responsibilities in H.S FTL! I've always wanted a G coupe though, so I got the best frickin deal ever on one and bought it cash

Mehh I hate hearing people these days saying they are independent and pay their own bills...when they live at home, dont pay rent, dont buy groceries, etc. I'm sorry if Im taking this thread somewhere else haha.
Canyon Country...did you get it from Power Ford?

I was driving about 50 miles from home to work in about 45 minutes, needless to say it was almost entirely highway. Even through my "neighborhood" I was driving about 45-50...benefit of living down the street from the middle of no-where

well it'll be about a 45-50 min drive, and most of it is on the interstate.

My last tank i got 14.5mpg. But im not driving it often and when i do, i like to hear the exhaust and stuff and usually have a fairly lead foot haha it is also winter.

On the highway at 80mph my car gets 21-23mpg.

If i drive normally, with a mix, i can get 17-18mpg. If im on the highway, i assume i could probably get 25-26mpg if i kept it at 55-60. But so far i have not been able to do that for an extended period of time.
