I've put in 11 tanks of gas so far, driven 5,500 miles and only spent $251 on gas averaging out to $125 a month. I've stated it before but I'm going to state it again I am saving a hell of a lot of money with my hybrid. I used to have a Jeep 4x4 and spent roughly $100 a week. My current car payment plus the gas I put in the car is only $25 more a month then what I used to fill up my tank per month.

I know my situation is not typical but many others (with increasing suburbia sprawl) don't have typical situations either.
