Not detailed enuff, need to check further.. more stringent checks to verify..

Simply8, SnowWhite, Stephy, CoupeM for the benefit of all of the 8 owners, get to work..

Standback Dolly....
Oei! Whats it gotta do with me.

MissyV, if it helps, I spend about 300 bucks on gas . Maybe cos I'm light footed most times, and plus I don't travel much either. Previously, it was always school - out for weekends - home. Don't forget to factor in the fact that many people may wanna hitch rides from u as well!
So actually it all boils down to how u drive.
Maybe for u a bigger issue would be insurance, since u do look young.

And the white to grey thing is pretty true. My white car turns grey on command

malcom bro,
i tink u are secretly in lurv or obsessed wif u noe who!

ms vitagen,
welcome to the club!

u're so sporting, that's nice.

first time to the meet muz blanja us all vitagen k?

btw, if yr working place 10 mins from yr hse, i estimate a distance of 10km max.
to and fro everyday 20km. sat and sun, double the distance lah.
so a week is 180km, which means that a tank can last u 2 weeks
with some change for a bit of high rev based on light foot driving of 2.2K rpm.

A month, u will pump 2 tanks = $190.00,
the most is a 3rd tank which comes to $285.00.

catch u later, me go change my avatar liao.........
