Gas is now $3.95 a gallon at our local grocery store/gas station. To think we were gasping last Summer at near $3/gallon gas. It doesn't sound so bad now!!
Well, I took my green machine in for its' 100K mile checkup before our trip to Houston last week, and ended up with a new Hybrid Tahoe. We picked it up on Thursday (with a full tank of gas), drove it around town Thursday afternoon and Friday morning (about 100 miles), then drove to Houston, back and forth to soccer fields 4 times over the weekend, not to mention the running around for meals, etc. and still had some gas in the tank. We finally filled up Sunday afternoon on the way out of Houston. With most of my driving in and around town running kids here and there, I was getting about 13 mpg in my old Tahoe. I'm averaging 22 mpg in the new Hybrid - not too bad! This last tank of gas lasted nearly 550 miles!!!
