LOL, that's funny bro.

Right now I'm driving a 98 Sonoma that I bought for $4500. It has 70k miles on it and I can fill it up and last 2 weeks on it, going to work and the weekends. I fill the mustang up and by the 5th day I'm stopping for gas again

. I think I'm getting about 10-12mpg with the stang now.. I believe it just went from daily driver to weekend warrior status.. that really sucks!!(I love driving this car

)
